Recent snapshot tarballs of R-devel don't compile

Hi,

Trying to compile one of the latest snapshot tarballs of R-devel gives
me the following error (64-bit openSUSE 10.3):
We don't know what file that is, though.  Problems with snapshots need to 
be reported to the site which makes them.

Perhaps you mean 
ftp://ftp.stat.math.ethz.ch/Software/R/R-devel_2008-12-03.tar.bz2
?  In which case see the README in that directory for how to report a 
problem.
...
make[2]: Entering directory 
`/loc/home/biocbuild/bbs-2.4-bioc/R/src/library/Recommended'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `VR.ts', needed by `stamp-recommended'. 
Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory 
`/loc/home/biocbuild/bbs-2.4-bioc/R/src/library/Recommended'
make[1]: *** [recommended-packages] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/loc/home/biocbuild/bbs-2.4-bioc/R/src/library/Recommended'
make: *** [stamp-recommended] Error 2

Maybe because these tarballs don't contain the symlinks that are
normally defined in the src/library/Recommended/ folder?
Maybe, in which case running tools/link-recommended will fix it.  Works 
for me with the snapshot mentioned above.
Cheers,
H.
