[R-sig-Debian] rmpi backports?

[Ross Boylan]

We have a cluster running squeeze (amd64) that uses CRAN (squeeze-cran 
directory) to get more recent versions of R packages.

Unfortunately, many cluster-related packages, including rmpi and rsprng 
are missing.  The basic squeeze version of rmpi won't load because it 
doesn't have a namespace.

Any suggestions about how to deal with this?

Thanks.
