Anyway, it is also directly in Factory, but it seems to have no maintainer: https://build.opensuse.org/package/users/openSUSE:Factory/rkward Why not to submit the update directly to Factory, then?
That's not how openSUSE development works, you cannot submit changes to Factory directly. Each package in Factory is maintained in some devel project (devel:languages:R:released in this case), submits to Factory are only accepted from there. IOW, changes have to be done in the devel project before they can be submitted to Factory (and Tumbleweed in the end).
We could put the package into KDE:Extra or similar and request a devel project change, but that takes time too and also needs to be accepted by the current maintainers I think.
I don't really share the concerns though. I did contribute to the rkward package in the past (mainly updated it to 0.6.5) and had no "problem" with the maintainers. Of course the situation is a bit different now, after all this is just a git snapshot, no proper release, this might be a reason to reject it. But the current package is "broken" now anyway, so let's see.
OK, thank You for clarification. Today 'zypper dup' installed rkward 0.6.9git. 20171022T093034~f74df5d6-19.1 from dev_lang_R_released and it works well. Thank You all! -- Vojtěch Zeisek Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/ https://trapa.cz/
