I'm not sure, but would recommend not to.

I can't quite parse your question, but I think the answer is in the Writing R Extensions manual, section 1.1 "Package Structure". Duncan Murdoch

Right, and "-" is not allowed (but used as a version number separator). It took me 10 seconds to find out by creating a package "a-b" that does not R CMD build with a proper error message - reading the docs would also result in the same finding, but takes a minute or two. Uwe Ligges
