I've been learning R on both Fedora and Ubuntu.

I've noticed that Ubuntu has considerably greater support for R than Fedora

deb packages than R rpm packages).

Is there a rationale for this?


I don't use R or Ubuntu.  But I wonder if counting the number of packages is 
actually
reflective of the level of support.  Is there a one-to-one correspondence 
between deb
and rpm packages and the distributions?

I count 140 rpm's (R-*) packages on Fedora.  This excludes the devel packages.  
How
many more does Ubuntu have and what functionality do they provide that is 
missing
from Fedora?

With that info, I would think one could write a BZ against R requesting the 
missing
pieces.  Probably would get a better, more definitive answer that way.

I count about 435 on Ubuntu.

fyi,
