From https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/R_package_guidelines

R allows packages to have colons and hyphens in their version, this is disallowed in PKGBUILDs. Convert these to a period or underscore.

As the package version has both dot and hyphen, I'm using the underscore to avoid mixing these.

I mean that according to Arch Wiki article it's recommended to use dot symbol instead of hyphen. A vast majority of AUR R packages use it (you can just check). All these packages use pkgver as in my previous comment. They don't use cranrel at all

Actually, _cranver has no "-" to be replaced by a dot. For now, I'm keeping the "_" to replace the "-" in the CRAN version. I can't keep the "-" since it's a forbidden character for the pkgver (it's the separator between the package "upstream content" version and the package release).

Please use the following for pkgver:

pkgver=${_cranver//[:-]/.}
