Hi Faheem, r-cran-munsell was submitted to the Debian archive and is currently under review. http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/r-cran-munsell_0.4-1.html However, it contains a binary file, 'sysdata.rda', that is data table in a compressed format. The question is whether it is generated and refreshed by the upstream author using a source file that is not distributed in the source package. Such a work would not be Free according to our principles. http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-med-packaging/2013-August/021177.html In the newer upstream version 0.4.2, there is a script to generate sysdata.rda from another file, real.dat, in text format. There is no information on where this table comes from, how was it created, and what is the preferred way to modify it. If you had time to contact the upstream authors and get this point clarified, that would be a tremendous help. In the meantime, it may be difficult to update r-cran-ggplot2. I have asked for a temporary exemption, but I did not receive an answer yet. http://lists.debian.org/20130807233230.ga12...@falafel.plessy.net Have a nice day, PS: I had a quick look at corrmodel (but did not have time to test it), and did not find obvious problems. For the package containing the R scripts, it may not be necessary to name it according to the convention for packaged R modules, since it is not a R module. By the way, is it a software to study clonotypes ? I have a (much simpler) work on line at http://clonotyper.branchable.com/ Cheers, -- Charles Plessy Debian Med packaging team, http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
