Looks like I added the “r-codetools” dupe.  It’s the same version and it
wasn’t on purpose, as far as I can tell.  It’s okay to remove it.

“r-gtable” seems to be the same.  What’s weird is that I added both
versions according to git blame, so maybe it’s been a careless merge?
I’d suggest removing the older version.
