emerge seems to take regex specifications. Also, R 2.0 appears
imminent, and 1.91 is still masked!

It would also be nice if emerge could use the CRAN system to track and
update R - as it is emerge is only good for installing the base package,
not maintenance

No, R 2.0.0 is out since yesterday. I have already changed the 1.9.1
ebuild to suit and put it in /usr/local/portage, everything built
correctly and seems working fine.

However, as soon as an 'official' gentoo ebuild comes out I'll go over to that.

:-o, IMO it's the most stupid name I have been seeing ...
it should be renamed to something searchable.
Try to run "esearch R" to learn why.

Of course you are right, it's a stupid name, but knowing your tools saves
time. My first shot in the dark would have been something like:

$ esearch ^R$
[ Results for search key : ^R$ ]
[ Applications found : 1 ]

Yes, it's good to know, tool supports regular expressions :-).
