R SIG Fedora - Oct 2013 - R packages in Fedora 18 and 19

I thought that Fedora 18 and Fedora 19 included packages for R.
But now I find that yum reports nothing available:

# yum install R-devel R
Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, langpacks, refresh-packagekit,
versionlock
No package R-devel available.
No package R available.

So I went to check manually in the download directory, e.g.

http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/18/Fedora/x86_64/os/Packages/r/

This doesn't contain any R packages either.  What am I missing?

In Fedora, the R packages are listed as R-core and R-core-devel.  Try that.
