[R-pkg-devel] R package test breakage catch 22

I see these possibilities

a) reduce the precision of the tests in A, so the test passes with both 
versions of B

b) a submission of both packages at the same time, with a message in the 
comments, explaining to CRAN why it is necessary that both are published at 
the same time (and maybe in more detail why the expected test results 
changed...)

c) merge the packages into one

Cheers,
