[R] Making a package works on any R version

Hi all   I  had made a package  in  R-3.0.3  , and its running  well   ,
my  issue is  it  is  not running in  other versions   or  R   like
R-3.0.2/3.0.1  it is  showing error  like  ---


Error: This is R 3.0.2, package ‘xxx’ needs >= 3.0.3



Does anybody  have  the solution  on  how  to  make this  package  run  on
any  versions  .

i  know its   not  a  big problem  ,  please forgive my  ignorance   if it
sounds  silly .


Thanks ,

ASHIS

The only reason you should get that message is because you coded in the 
DESCRIPTION file that your package depends on R (>= 3.0.3).  If you 
don't want that dependency, don't code it.

  It sounds like there is a Depends: line in your DESCRIPTION file that
mandates R >= 3.0.3.  Try removing it?
