Dear all

As agreed with José there is the news of the new release of R2spec.

Have a nice sunday

Best regards,
Pierre

======================================================================

There is the latest version of R2spec, I have been working quite a bit 
on it with the suggestion of faceface from #R on irc.freenode.net to 
improve this software. Therefore the changelog for this new release is 
quite long and the list of features added seems also important.

The principle is still the same: make R packages as simple as possible.

Seems there are mainly two sources of libraries for R (Bioconductor and 
the CRAN) I added two options (--bioc and --cran) that add the Source0 
and the URL in the spec file if it has not been defined by the --url option.

 From that I aslo considered the case of the noarch packages, it now 
looks for *.c, *.C, *.cp, *.cpp, *.f and *.F files, if it does not find 
any it consider the package as noarch and thus adapt the specfile for that.

It also offers the possibility to move the source to %_topdir (defined 
in ~/.rpmmacros) so  that you can directly run the rpmbuild -ba once you 
have made the small correction advised on the spec file.

That's the main features added, you can see below the changelog for this 
new release and you can always test and give feed back, report bugs and 
suggest enhancement on the trac of the R2spec project [1].

The RPMs and sources are available on the git of the R2spec project [2].

Thanks for your attention :-)
