Thanks for the hint - this was the point I wanted to make with my mail.

Thanks to Nilesh for fixing it.

I enhanced dh-r to inject the versioned Depends declared by upstream as
long as these are packaged. That's no guarantee that our tests will
work but hopefully a first step to enhance the situation.

I'm just hoping for the team since I'm busy with real life and will be
absolutely offline from tomorrow noon for at least 24 hours.

IT can't be uploaded since the new version will not build due to the
missing dependencies that need to clear new. I see no sense in
rebuilding the old versions since they do not fit the bioconductor
version of all other r-bioc-* packages. I intended to express with
my mail that those packages are not and can not be uploaded.
Kind regards
Andreas.
