Hi Dirk, dear all,

I just finished backporting 2.6.1 to etch, and the backport just got
picked up by CRAN. I also included a rebuild of littler 0.0.11 from
unstable. The rkward backport is still working fine, as far as I can
tell, so I didn't rebuild.

Best regards,

Johannes

P.S.: BTW, Vincent was really fast and already uploaded R 2.6.1 binaries
for Ubuntu three days ago!
