Subject: stable, testing, and backports
The cran2deb archives target testing.
I just pulled a package from them onto a stable system; the library
loaded but said
> library(akima)
Warning message:
package 'akima' was built under R version 2.10.0
Are this and other packages likely to work correctly with different R's
(2.7 in the case of stable)?
How well are they likely to work with a backported R? The R version
would then match, but I assume some of the associated libraries might be
off.

P.S. I see the mspath package I just uploaded is already in cran2deb.
Cool, and thanks to Dirk, Charles Blundell, Google, and others who made
this possible.
