This means that the user can't specify the R version to use. Need to create a version of contrib.url() that includes user-specified R.version

This caused a major problem when starting to build using R-devel (i.e. R-3.2.0). The reason was that contrib.url() would point to R-3.2 but the packages are not available on CRAN for the matching version.

The fix was:

  • Create a new function contribUrl(), a slightly modified version of contrib.url.
  • Add Rversion aguments to all functions, including pkgDep(), pkgAvail() and makeRepo()
