[R] Update VR_7.1-6

[Gavin Simpson]

Hi Dirk,

dse and VR are bundles or packages.  There is a bug in rw1070 in the way 
it installs bundles.

Download the zip file directly and unzip it to the library directory in 
wherever R is installed on your system.

This has been discussed recently (this morning) on the list.  Search the 
archives to read more.
