Sadly, it does not appear there are currently any available R packages (a phenomenal piece of software, by the way) in the Build Service.
If you're adventurous, you could perhaps get it built there... (Don't ask me how, but you can probably get help here on doing this.)

Thanks. I found R by searching for R-base.
Whaddya' know? Thanks for pointing that out. If I'm ever bored, I might try some R stuff again. There's a whole hell of a lot to it!
I've been trying to set up repositories in yast2 but I cannot get the open source repository to work. I was able to get updates and java. Not sure what the problem is - keeps asking me if I have a connection (which I do). I pasted the URL in the space provided.
For the few times I've tried, I've found the one-click scheme to work well and frees you from all that manual repository configuration. Just click the "1-Click Install" button(s) on the system in question and you should be led directly into the appropriate, pre-primed configuration dialogs. The only issue that leaves is how to pick one of the 6 (!) R-base packages. I guess one way would be to take the one with highest version number (2.7.0-7.1, from the home:sjcundy repository). One gets the feeling six people independently decided to have the same package built by the Build Service...
