This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-rsclient package of RSclient, an R
package which provides a client for Rserve, allowing to connect to Rserve instances
and issue commands. RSclient was written by Simon Urbanek.
This package was created by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>.
The sources were downloaded from the main CRAN site
http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/
and are also available from all CRAN mirrors as e.g.
http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/
The package was renamed from its upstream name 'RSclient' to
'r-cran-rsclient' to fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) Debian R
packages.
