[rkward-devel] rules revised

[meik michalke]

hi,

i did some work on the debian/rules file, mainly because i was finally annoyed 
enough i had to keep a seperate version for the ubuntu 8.04 lts release. 
instead, i was looking for an "one size fits all" solution that checks where 
it's running and applies patches, if applicable. this is the result:
 o http://reaktanz.de/stuff/R/debian.tar.gz

two comments:

the checks for R versions are tweaked a little as well, and updated after 
support for  < 2.7 has ceased. actually, the build won't even start any more 
if R is too old. awk is being called for this to work. make doesn't have too 
elaborate arithmetic features (e.g. "greater than" conditions...), does it?

another new call goes to lsb_release to get the distribution. if it's not 
ubuntu 8.04, the included menu patch will be ignored. so you can distribute 
the patch as well and don't have to worry about it. on the other hand, new 
patches for certain distributions could be added easily.

could you give it a try and see if it works under debian as well?
