R devel repository tarball naming issue
Thanks Martin! The latest snapshot (R-devel_2009-09-03.tar.gz) looks OK. FYI the tarballs with a broken name are still here (ftp://ftp.stat.math.ethz.ch/Software/R/): R-devel_.tar.bz2 R-devel_.tar.gz Cheers, H.

Yes, I now did and have fixed the problem.
It was from an OS change (from Redhat to Fedora) which I had not
checked the way I thought I had ...
I'm sorry for any inconveniences.
