This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-quantreg package of quantreg.  The
quantreg package provides quantile regression and related methods. It
was written by Roger Koenker.

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 'quantreg' to
'r-cran-quantreg' to fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages
for R.
