Ubuntu cran2deb PPA
Hi Tony, Yes, this might be a good thing to tackle in Kiel. How much effort would it be to do a rebuild against the latest CRAN/Bioconductor packages? Could this be done before the meeting so we have up-to-date source packages to tinker with? Cheers, TIM

[...] As far as I'm aware, the packages on cran2deb4ubuntu will have been built from a selection of auto-generated sources spat out from cran2deb. There used to be a page where these could be downloaded but I can't find it any more (or am I just going blind?). Is there somewhere I can snag the source packages used for the PPA? Should I just download and run cran2deb myself to obtain them? Also, what's the best way to contribute back to you?
Hi, Tim. The "c2d" that Steffen and me put up on the RINH Beowulf server after the Debian-Med sprint in Travemuende is still there, but has been neglected since I left the University of Aberdeen: http://bioinformatics.rri.sari.ac.uk/cran2deb/ I could revisit this with you at the Sprint in Kiel if you want? Bye, Tony.
