Ahem, that is more a question for [EMAIL PROTECTED],debian.org, not r-help.

R 1.7.1 is part of "sid" aka "unstable", you can point to any of the mirrors
listed in  http://www.debian.org/mirror/list   which includes one primary
and maybe three dozen secondary mirrors in the US alone.  Your apt-get man
pages will tell you about source depends, but it as simple as 

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free

in /etc/apt/sources.list.

Do you have any specific reason why the packages Doug Bates and I have been
maintaining for over half a decade aren't good enough?
