Yes, this is a very annoying problem with Bioconductor. I’m not sure
but I think this has been raised on the Bioconductor mailing lists some
months ago. There is no archive at the moment.
All previous releases might still be available via SVN, though, so maybe
we can find a way to generalise this and add an SVN origin as a
fallback. Maybe we should not use the tarballs at all and convert all
of the Bioconductor packages to use SVN instead?
