[R-sig-Debian] package ‘Design’ is not available (for R version 2.15.2)

[Mathieu Basille]

Dear David,

I'm afraid it's not a Debian problem, but instead a Design problem. As you 
can see here [1]: "Package ‘Design’ was removed from the CRAN repository."
As a matter of fact, it has been replaced, many years ago, by the package 
'rms'. See changes here [2]. Was it the only package with problem? If yes, 
problem solved :)

Best,
Mathieu.
