So, the argument is "IRkernal is not an ordinary R package" and
because this very package is special it "is acceptable" to propagate R
(r-minimal).
No objection, but adding this explanation or a link to this thread
appears to me welcome. :-)
For example in the commit message or perhaps better a comment in
propagated-inputs.
Thank you for this package. Nice to have it! :-)
All the best,
simon
