Apropos automatisation. I've spent some time in testing a script that's
just implementing all routine calls I did for upgrading r-* packages.
Despite it needs a not yet released version of libconfig-model-dpkg-perl
I pushed it to
https://salsa.debian.org/r-pkg-team/maintenance-utilities/blob/master/routine-update
for the comfort of anybody who wants to help keeping R packages up to
date. I would not have announced this before libconfig-model-dpkg-perl
version 2.108 is released but this is to be expected soon[1] and the
topic of our thread here just fits. I think after further testing of
others and thorough inspection of the results we might move it over to
the dh-r package.
Have fun
Andreas.
