[ESS] Is this the proper place to report a bug ?

[Vincent Goulet]

Ottorino,

This is actually my fault since I build the CRAN ESS package for  
Ubuntu. Somebody else reported to me that the package does not  
install. I don't have the time to correct the situation for now, so I  
pulled the package off CRAN. Give some time for the mirrors to update,  
run "apt-get update" and the system should not bother you with ESS.

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.
