* Package name : postgresql-8.3-plr

Programming Lang: C
Description : Procedural language interface between PostgreSQL 8.3 and R
R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics,
providing a wide variety of statistical and graphical techniques (linear and
nonlinear modelling, statistical tests, time series analysis, classification,
clustering, and so on).
.
PostgreSQL is an open source SQL database server.
.
This package provides a procedural language interface to R from
PostgreSQL 8.3. Procedural languages are used to write functions
which can be called in database queries.
This package was removed from Debian (see #228074, which can not be
reopened because it is archived). The reason that it is RC buggy) is
void because #461995 took me 1 Minute to fix (well, you can blame me
for not having this done before the removal - the package was just not
on my focus). The other reason "few users" is probably right considering
popcon, but this as the only reason to remove a package is not enough.
I think upgradebility from Etch to Lenny is a much higher value.
So I ask for reintroducing this package quickly.
I prepared lintian clean packages of the latest version.
Kind regards
Andreas.
