Ubuntu cran2deb PPA

Dear Don,

Good to hear that the Debian R Package Archive is up to date! I wasn't 
using it because last time I checked, there was still many packages missing 
(at least packages useful to me). But that was a long time ago. Following 
this discussion, I just upgraded, and almost every package I need from CRAN 
is now present and up to date! The installation takes less time than it 
needs to say it, it all worked like a charm!

Now, if this is an appropriate place for such request, I'd like to add the 
rgeos package [1] to the two already mentioned by Tim. I also have problems 
to install rgdal and sqlitemap, which are listed in the Debian R Package 
Archive [2,3], but were unavailable to me through aptitude -- maybe an 
architecture issue? Both rgeos and rgdal have somewhat complicated 
dependencies... Here is my system info:

$ cat /etc/issue
Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 \n \l

$ head /proc/version
Linux version 3.2.0-4-amd64 (debian-kernel at lists.debian.org) (gcc version 
4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-14) ) #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2

Please let me know if any more information is needed, and thanks for this 
great work!

Sincerely,
Mathieu.
