Ok. I will set up a new toolchain for testing then. We need this for Rocker all the time---eg I just put something marvelous into littler which I need in Rocker, yet Debian is frozen with no timeline for release. And it is silly for us to keep rebuilding all these things when building containers. The three of us should (will !!) work something out that will allow us proper testing support via CRAN, which we can fold into your existing mirror structure. Plan?
