Thanks, Brian. Since the tree is a bit messy and has both R and package builds, the directory with the currently used packaging system is in https://svn.r-project.org/R-dev-web/trunk/QA/Simon/R-build/packaging/leopard/ It works off the installed R version on the machine. However, please note that the CRAN builds perform several modifications to the installation before it is packaged, so *please* change the installer ID in the PM project before you produce any installation packages! Also please make clear that whatever you are distributing is likely not compatible with CRAN R (unless you actually run all the CRAN scripts like "universal").
