Bug#815783: r-cran-arm: FTBFS - dependencies are not available for package 'arm'

[Michael Tautschnig]

Package: r-cran-arm
Version: 1.8-6-1
Severity: serious
Usertags: goto-cc

During a rebuild of all Debian packages in a clean sid chroot (using cowbuilder
and pbuilder) the build failed with the following error.

[...]
dh_installdirs		usr/lib/R/site-library
echo "R:Depends=r-base-core (>= 3.2.3-6), r-api-3" >> debian/r-cran-arm.substvars
if test -f /usr/bin/xvfb-run; then 			\
		 xvfb-run -a 			\
			R CMD INSTALL -l /srv/jenkins-slave/workspace/sid-goto-cc-r-cran-arm/r-cran-arm-1.8-6/debian/r-cran-arm/usr/lib/R/site-library --clean     \
				 .   	\
				"--built-timestamp=\"Thu, 18 Feb 2016 21:43:55 +0100\""   	        \
				;                               \

	fi

The full build log is attached; please do let me know if the problem is
unreproducible, in which case I shall try to investigate further.

Best,
Michael
