Brian is correct regarding the lists, but note that Rggobi 1.1 works

an old R-H or SuSE system (sorry Dirk!  not had a chance to change it
yet...).

Very good, so my sometimes Quixotic attempts at getting more of DTL's code
into Debian, Quantian, ... shall see another round of battling. News at 11.

New packages have just been upload into Debian's master archive. These are
Ggobi 1.0-1-beta (which I renamed 0.99.99 so that a future 1.0.0 sorts
higher for dpkg) and Rggobi 1.1-1.  Both needed some minor fudging as
documented in the changelogs included below.

ggobi (0.99.99-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release 
  * Upstream version 1.0-1-beta renamed 0.99.99 to permit a 1.0.0 package
  * Upstream configure files and built system are somewhat broken with 
    respect to the plugin architecture -- we have been unable to build
    this for the last few beta releases. Consquently, plugins for 
    - Postgres
    - Dataviewer
    - Fileselector
    - Ggvis
    have been disabled by brute force via a patch to configure.in.
  * Consequently, removed the enties for libmysqlclient-dev, python-dev, 
    postgresql-dev from Build-Depends 
  * debian/control: Standards-Version increased to 3.6.1.1

rggobi (1.1.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
  
  * src/Makevars.in: As ggobi's ggobi-config would appears to be broken, 
    we added explicit statements '-I/usr/lib/ggobi/include' to PKG_CPPFLAGS 
    and '-L/usr/lib/ggobi/lib' to PKG_LIBS
  * R/GGobiHome.S: Dito, setting '/usr/lib/ggobi'
      
  * Built under R 2.0.*
  * debian/control: Updated Build-Depends: and Depends: accordingly
  * debian/post{inst,rm}: Only run build-help.pl if R is installed
  * debian/watch: Added watch file

If your hair is standing up, then you are in extreme danger.
