I just installed 1.0 (great job, everyone!) and rebuilt all my packages. I have found an error in making VR_6.1-6.tar.gz:
That's not the current version: using VR_6.1-7.tar.gz does not give this problem. It will be true for a number of other packages too.

there,
but the locate db hasn't been rebuilt yet) but isn't anymore.
It was there prior to 0.99.0, but not in the last two versions.
Never mind -- I don't need Arith.h anymore. I found it in /usr/lib/R/include/R_ext and made a link to it in /usr/lib/R/include.
No, please don't do that. Put "R_ext/Arith.h" in the source of old versions of packages if you need to. There is a rationale for the change: `Arith.h' is too common a name for us to be sure of people getting the right one.
