I didn't answer this bit: No particular reason. I have 10+ packages on CRAN but only maintain two or three in Debian ... as the others install so easily in R itself. (digest for example has not further depends). And I already have 120+ packages so time is somewhat limited. But (r-cran-)digest makes some sense. | > | before uploading something. | > | > I'll do it.

Should I remove this wnpp bug? Up to you. I can simply close it. Will be nice to have ggplot2 and reshape in as well.
