It should be easy to package, for OSGeo live we use a package created by cran2deb.
IMHO The major reason that it is not packaged is that R has a convenient packaging system itself. For most modules I don't think packaging as a deb is that useful. I don't really see the point in getting updates to my R packages through my operating system.
