[R-pkg-devel] Warning "Dependence on R version '3.3.3' not with patchlevel 0"
Yep. Bear in mind that many system-wide installation, e.g. in universities, are of .0 or .1 releases and upgraded yearly. If we end up with packages depending on packages depending on a later version, bad things can happen (and _did_ happen in the 3.2.* series). For the same reason, we have become very careful not to add features into R-patched,so it should be rather unlikely that packages that work with x.y.z do not also work with x.y.0. -pd

Hi everybody, on submitting a new package I got a rejection because of the above warning in the CRAN-check. I guess it is because of the "Depends" entry "R (>= 3.3.3)" in the DESCRIPTION file but I have no idea how to do this otherwise. Any hel?p would be highly appreciated.
If sufficient, use R (>= 3.3.0), otherwise R (>= 3.4.0): If you rely on a specific patchlevel, binary repositories are inconsistant on CRAN and typically you should be able to rely on a x.y.0 release. Best, Uwe Ligges
