  CHANGES IN R 3.3.1:
  BUG FIXES:
    * R CMD INSTALL and hence install.packages() gave an internal error
      installing a package called description from a tarball on a
      case-insensitive file system.
    * match(x, t) (and hence x %in% t) failed when x was of length one,
      and either character and x and t only differed in their Encoding
      or when x and t where complex with NAs or NaNs.  (PR#16885.)
    * unloadNamespace(ns) also works again when ns is a 'namespace', as
      from getNamespace().
    * rgamma(1,Inf) or rgamma(1, 0,0) no longer give NaN but the
      correct limit.
    * length(baseenv()) is correct now.
    * pretty(d, ..) for date-time d rarely failed when "halfmonth" time
      steps were tried (PR#16923) and on 'inaccurate' platforms such as
      32-bit windows or a configuration with --disable-long-double; see
      comment #15 of PR#16761.
    * In text.default(x, y, labels), the rarely(?) used default for
      labels is now correct also for the case of a 2-column matrix x
      and missing y.
    * as.factor(c(a = 1L)) preserves names() again as in R < 3.1.0.
    * strtrim(""[0], 0[0]) now works.
    * Use of Ctrl-C to terminate a reverse incremental search started
      by Ctrl-R in the readline-based Unix terminal interface is now
      supported for readline >= 6.3 (Ctrl-G always worked).  (PR#16603)
    * diff(<difftime>) now keeps the "units" attribute, as subtraction
      already did, PR#16940.

- upstream release 3.3.0
  CHANGES IN R 3.3.0:
  SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES:
    * nchar(x, *)'s argument keepNA governing how the result for NAs in
      x is determined, gets a new default keepNA = NA which returns NA
      where x is NA, except for type = "width" which still returns 2,
      the formatting / printing width of NA.
    * All builds have support for https: URLs in the default methods
      for download.file(), url() and code making use of them.
      Unfortunately that cannot guarantee that any particular https:
      URL can be accessed.  For example, server and client have to
      successfully negotiate a cryptographic protocol (TLS/SSL, ...)
      and the server's identity has to be verifiable _via_ the
      available certificates.  Different access methods may allow
      different protocols or use private certificate bundles: we
      encountered a https: CRAN mirror which could be accessed by one
      browser but not by another nor by download.file() on the same
      Linux machine.
  NEW FEATURES:
    * The print method for methods() gains a byclass argument.
    * New functions validEnc() and validUTF8() to give access to the
      validity checks for inputs used by grep() and friends.
    * Experimental new functionality for S3 method checking, notably
      isS3method().
      Also, the names of the R 'language elements' are exported as
      character vector tools::langElts.
    * str(x) now displays "Time-Series" also for matrix (multivariate)
      time-series, i.e. when is.ts(x) is true.
    * (Windows only) The GUI menu item to install local packages now
      accepts *.tar.gz files as well as *.zip files (but defaults to

- CHANGES IN R 3.2.5:
  BUG FIXES:
    • format.POSIXlt() behaved incorrectly in R 3.2.4.  E.g. the output
      of format(as.POSIXlt(paste0(1940:2000,"-01-01"), tz = "CET"),
      usetz = TRUE) ended in two "CEST" time formats.
    • A typo in the Makefile for src/extra/xz prevented builds of
      liblzma.a. (Notice that this will become unbundled in 3.3.0.)

- upstrem releases minorst bug fix release
  NEWS: The 3.2.4 release had two annoyances which we would rather 
  not have in an "ultra-stable" release, designed to hang around 
  for the duration of the 3.3 series. One was a relatively minor 
  Makefile issue affecting system using R's bundled lzma library. 
  The other, rather more serious, affected printing and formatting 
  of POSIXlt objects, which would unpredictably get the Daylight 
  Savings Time wrong.

- upstream release 3.2.4, only minor improvements
CHANGES IN R 3.2.4:
  NEW FEATURES:
    • install.packages() and related functions now give a more
      informative warning when an attempt is made to install a base
      package.
    • summary(x) now prints with less rounding when x contains infinite
      values. (Request of PR#16620.)
    • provideDimnames() gets an optional unique argument.
    • shQuote() gains type = "cmd2" for quoting in cmd.exe in Windows.
      (Response to PR#16636.)
    • The data.frame method of rbind() gains an optional argument
      stringsAsFactors (instead of only depending on
      getOption("stringsAsFactors")).
    • smooth(x, *) now also works for long vectors.
    • tools::texi2dvi() has a workaround for problems with the texi2dvi
      script supplied by texinfo 6.1.
      It extracts more error messages from the LaTeX logs when in
      emulation mode.
  UTILITIES:
    • R CMD check will leave a log file build_vignettes.log from the
      re-building of vignettes in the .Rcheck directory if there is a
      problem, and always if environment variable
      _R_CHECK_ALWAYS_LOG_VIGNETTE_OUTPUT_ is set to a true value.
  DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT:
    • Use of SUPPORT_OPENMP from header Rconfig.h is deprecated in
      favour of the standard OpenMP define _OPENMP.
      (This has been the recommendation in the manual for a while now.)
    • The make macro AWK which is long unused by R itself but recorded
      in file etc/Makeconf is deprecated and will be removed in R

- The big split up. What was a monolithic R-base*rpm now is 
  divided over 30 something packages, with the following layout.
  R-base-3.2.3: dummy packages, contains all of R
  Use R-base, if you don´t have a good understandig what it means 
  to install only parts of it!
  
  R-base-devel-3.2.3: dummy, contains R-core-devel
  R-core-3.2.3: R core, no packages at all
  R-core-devel-3.2.3: devel files
  R-core-libs-3.2.3: contains Rlib
  R-core-doc-3.2.3: all the documentation of R-core
  R-core-packages-3.2.3: dummy package to load all core packages, that are
        R-compiler-3.2.3,
        R-datasets-3.2.3,
        R-grDevices-3.2.3,
        R-graphics-3.2.3,

        R-tcltk-3.2.3,
        R-tools-3.2.3,
        R-utils-3.2.3.
  Each of these packages may be installed alone.
  
  R-recommended-packages-3.2.3: dummy package to load all recommeded 
                                packages, that are

- Upstream release R-3.2.3
  CHANGES IN R 3.2.3:
  NEW FEATURES:
    * Some recently-added Windows time zone names have been added to
      the conversion table used to convert these to Olson names.
      (Including those relating to changes for Russia in Oct 2014, as
      in PR#16503.)
    * (Windows) Compatibility information has been added to the
      manifests for Rgui.exe, Rterm.exe and Rscript.exe.  This should
      allow win.version() and Sys.info() to report the actual Windows
      version up to Windows 10.
    * Windows "wininet" FTP first tries EPSV / PASV mode rather than
      only using active mode (reported by Dan Tenenbaum).
    * which.min(x) and which.max(x) may be much faster for logical and
      integer x and now also work for long vectors.
    * The 'emulation' part of tools::texi2dvi() has been somewhat
      enhanced, including supporting quiet = TRUE.  It can be selected
      by texi2dvi = "emulation".
      (Windows) MiKTeX removed its texi2dvi.exe command in Sept 2015:
      tools::texi2dvi() tries texify.exe if it is not found.
    * (Windows only) Shortcuts for printing and saving have been added
      to menus in Rgui.exe.  (Request of PR#16572.)
    * loess(..., iterTrace=TRUE) now provides diagnostics for
      robustness iterations, and the print() method for
      summary(<loess>) shows slightly more.
    * The included version of PCRE has been updated to 8.38, a bug-fix
      release.
    * View() now displays nested data frames in a more friendly way.
      (Request with patch in PR#15915.)
  INSTALLATION and INCLUDED SOFTWARE:
Detlef Steuer's avatar Detlef Steuer (dsteuer) committed (revision 23)
- Reverse the whole split. Back to the big package.
  Had user reports of broken installations.
  R-base, R-base-devel and R-base-libs are provided for now.
  The big split will come for 3.3.0
