That is not supported, and I have no plans (as in "no time") to support it.

If you think you really need it, please provide a patch. It would be
preferable if the patch didn't break a) the maybe ~ 150 r-cran-* packages
using the existing system and b) didn't break outside system like cran2deb /
c2d4u that build up to 3000+ packages with it.

Otherwise please build your package with the current, working and supported
framework.

Thanks,  Dirk
