I have Debian packages of all the required pieces available at

  http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/R/ 	   [ note the trailing /R ]

which allows anyone running Debian testing or unstable to take a peek John's
most interesting code, play with and cleanly uninstall it if need be.

The files are 

    r-cran-pmg_0.1-1_i386.deb
    r-omegahat-oop_0.4.2.R-1_i386.deb
    r-omegahat-rgdkpixbuf_0.1-1_i386.deb
    r-omegahat-rgtk_0.6.0-1_i386.deb
    r-omegahat-rgtkextra_0.1-1_i386.deb

and of these, only r-omegahat-rgtk has thus far been part of the Debian
distributions.  I'd welcome feedback from Debian users to see if there is
interest in having Duncan's other modules be part of the Debian
distribution.
