[R] R-release.diff.gz: "patch detected! Assume -R? [n]"

[Agustin Lobo]

Hi!

I'm upgrading to 1.6.2. (linux suse7.3). 
I see that there is
a patch in R-release.diff.gz.

1. Is this patch stable? In other words, is
it adviced that I install R-release.diff.gz ?

2. When I do:

zcat R-release.diff.gz | patch -p1 -E

I get many lines such as:

patching file AUTHORS
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n]

Should I just accept the default answer?

Thanks

Agus
