A number of packages had to be rebuilt to fix the NAMESPACE issue.

reported it works using the /usr/bin/R 2.14.2):

It has been inoperational for years as you could have noticed by looking at
the version numbers of the packages you were getting, relative to CRAN.
Use http://debian-r.debian.net, which is a pretty new, well done "reboot" of
the same idea.
In case you use Ubuntu, stick to Michael's cran2deb4ubuntu.
Do not mix Debian and Ubuntu.

| It's a shame because we are funded to release our bioinformatics pipelines,
and they are all carefully Debian packaged. I can make a big blob of R_LIBS
for each one of them instead of specifying R modules as dpkg dependencies, but
it feels like a terrible hack.
