Unfortunately the person whose scripts are running this is on vacation and only he can rectify this. The intention is that if `make dist' fails in any way you do not get a tarball, so I don't understand how these partial tarballs are being created -- not that it is failing for me. (I have a guess as to what the problem is, a conflict on an automated svn update.)
Please use Subversion for now, and please be patient: R is a volunteer project and we cannot be expected to have unstable versions available at all times.

Please note that those tarballs are not on a R site per se.
all had the property that when I run ./configure on them I get the following error message:
config.status: error: cannot find input file: po/Makefile.in.in
which terminates the configure script.
After R-devel_2005-02-15.tar.gz was posted but before R-devel_2005-02-16.tar.gz was posted, Jeff Gentry got the devel version of R from SVM and it did not have this problem, so he and I thought it was a problem that had been fixed sometime after R-devel_2005-02-15.tar.gz was made. But, since it still happens in R-devel_2005-02-16.tar.gz, I would guess it's a problem with the tarball creation software.
