Instead of doing it like you've done, which is a massive overload on the
package, it would be much better to package all of these items
individually.

For example, Fedora already has R-abind.

I know that we have some active efforts in progress to package up all of
the BioConductor RPMS, anyone want to chime in with a status report?
