[R-sig-Debian] debian and cran2deb name clashes

[Liviu Andronic]

Dear all
Recently I noticed that there are name clashes between the packages
proposed in the Debian testing repos and cran2deb. For example,
Synaptic proposes to upgrade from xtable
1.5-6-1cran1 (cran2deb, up-to-date CRAN version) to
1.5.5-1 (testing, older version).

Is there anything that can be done about these clashes?
Liviu
