Internal technical issues at the archive; we are rebuilding. Among a number
of other chnages we are not currently signing packages or release files.

amd64 is currently NOT being updated.

i386 has new (better) repository you can access via the new URL

     deb http://debian.cran.r-project.org/rep cran2deb main

The URL may change again. Or it may stay. It may one day contain amd64
binaries, or it may not.

| Is it OK to take the packages as is?

Your call. Either way you still have your money-back guarantee :)
