+This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-sparsem package of SparseM.
+The SparseM package provides basic linear algebra for sparse matrices
+and was written by Roger Koenker and Pin Ng.
+
+This package was created by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>.
+The sources were downloaded from the main CRAN site
+	http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/
+and are also available from all CRAN mirrors as e.g.
+	http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/
+
+The package was renamed from its upstream name 'SparseM' to
+'r-cran-sparsem' to fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages
+for R.
