CHANGES IN R 3.6.1:
INSTALLATION on a UNIX-ALIKE:
* The default detection of the shell variable libNN is overridden
for derivatives of Debian Linux, some of which have started to
have a /usr/lib64 directory. (E.g. Ubuntu 19.04.) As before, it
can be specified in config.site.
UTILITIES:
* R CMD config knows the values of AR and RANLIB, often set for LTO
builds.
DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT:
* The use of a character vector with .Fortran() is formally
deprecated and gives a non-portability warning. (It has long
been strongly discouraged in 'Writing R Extensions'.)
BUG FIXES:
* On Windows, GUI package installation via menuInstallPkgs() works
again, thanks to Len Weil's and Duncan Murdoch's PR#17556.
* R CMD check on data() fixing PR#17558 thanks to Duncan Murdoch.
* quasi(*, variance = list(..)) now works more efficiently, and
should work in all cases fixing PR#17560. Further, quasi(var =
mu(1-mu)) and quasi(var = "mu ^ 3") now work, and quasi(variance
= "log(mu)") now gives a correct error message.
* Creation of lazy loading database during package installation is
again robust to Rprofile changing the current working directory
(PR#17559).
* boxplot(y ~ f, horizontal=TRUE) now produces correct x- and
y-labels.
* rbind.data.frame() allows to keep <NA> levels from factor columns
(PR#17562) via new option factor.exclude.
Additionally, it works in one more case with matrix-columns which
had been reported on 2017-01-16 by Krzysztof Banas.
* Correct messaging in C++ pragma checks in tools code for R CMD
check, fixing PR#17566 thanks to Xavier Robin.
* print()ing and auto-printing no longer differs for functions with
a user defined print.function, thanks to Bill Dunlap's report.
* On Windows, writeClipboard(.., format = <n>) now does correctly
pass format to the underlying C code, thanks to a bug report
(with patch) by Jenny Bryan.
* as.data.frame() treats 1D arrays the same as vectors, PR#17570.
* Improvements in smoothEnds(x, *) working with NAs (towards
runmed() working in that case, in the next version of R).
* vcov(glm(<quasi>), dispersion = *) works correctly again, fixing
PR#17571 thanks to Pavel Krivitsky.
* R CMD INSTALL of binary packages on Windows now works also with
per-directory locking.
* R CMD INSTALL and install.packages() on Windows are now more
robust against a locked file in an earlier installation of the
package to be installed. The default value of option
install.lock on Windows has been changed to TRUE.
* On Unix alikes (when readline is active), only expand tilde (~)
file names starting with a tilde, instead of almost all tildes.
* In R documentation (*.Rd) files, \item [..] is no longer treated
specially when rendered in LaTeX and hence pdf, but rather shows
the brackets in all cases.

Log message:
Add 'R' to the cateogries for R packages.
The category 'R' is used to denote R packages, just as 'perl5' and 'python'
are used in other cases. To ensure consistency, add that to CATEGORIES in
Makefile.extension rather than in each individual R package. This was
discussed in http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-pkg/2019/08/02/msg021711.html.
