May be this is because it is install-specific. R can either ship / build with its own version of LAPACK or use one already installed on the system.

Releasing a source package should be done easily once it builds. Windows binaries are a different matter and will have to be contributed (and building / running under Windows with recent R will require fixes to the binary path).
