[R] Package parallel missing from CRAN_package_db

[Luí­s Moreira de Sousa]

Dear all,

I am using the CRAN_package_db function to determine whether the head versions of certain packages match those I need. The parallel package though, is missing from the database:

> pdb <- tools:::CRAN_package_db()
> pdb[pdb$Package=="parallel",]["Package"]
[1] Package
<0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)

Is this a bug that needs to be reported (where?) ? Or is there other reason for this package to be missing from the database?

Thank you.
