Hmmm. Assuming the previous version of the package (without the
extensions/updates) avoids all of the testing errors, I would say that
RAW ("rules as written") the only constraint I can see on submitting a
"rollback" version of the package would be the CRAN request for
updates “no more than every 1–2 months".

I think the original package wouldn't have been archived unless it was failing tests and the author didn't address the failures.

to the CRAN maintainers (if none reply on-list) seems appropriate.

Hello all,

Recently I submitted a large update to the package I maintain and was unable to 
resolve the testing errors prior to it being archived. I've been unable to 
reproduce the errors, so I expect to have to setup my own fedora_clang virtual 
machine to debug my package. Ideally I'd want a previous version to be more 
easily available while I figure out my issues. Is it against CRAN policy to 
resubmit an earlier version of an archived package, assuming I fully explain 
what led to the archival and re-submission in the submission comment? I'm sorry 
if this has already been asked, I couldn't find an answer online and wanted to 
check before resubmitting anything.

Thank you for your time,
Eric
