Thanks for sharing this with us. It looks like 'cran2deb' did evolve to a useful state.

For example, I would like to install all the Rcmdr plug-ins via the PPA but the only one available is 'rcmdrplugin.doe'. Very useful GUIs such as 'playwith' and 'latticist' are missing, too. Even some popular toolkit deps are missing: 'gwidgetstcltk'. Are there plans to increase the number of packages provided?
