I can think of two ways:
1. r-cran-shiny is an arch:all package, so the package itself being
built against r-base 4.3.0 is not an issue. The issue is the
"r-base-core (>= 4.3.0-1)" that dh-r injects, which is being pulled in
the autopkgtests of its reverse-depends.
Changing that to "r-base-core (>= 4.2.2.20221110-2)" manually should do
the trick.
Something on the lines of:
override_dh_gencontrol:
dh_gencontrol
sed "s/r-base-core (>= 4.3.0-1)/r-base-core (>= 4.2.2.20221110-2)" -i
debian/r-cran-shiny/DEBIAN/control
Ofcourse, the hard-coding of 4.3.0-1 can be converted to some better
regular expression.
2. It makes a valid and strong case to use t-p-u (see here[5])
for such an upload, as it isn't a possibility to build against R in
testing.
You might want to ask release team about it, by filing a bug for
release.d.o pseudo-package and/or asking in #debian-release on OFTC.
I personally prefer "1" over 2 as it is less noise (and effort).
Let me know what you think.
