Rattle 5.2.0 Released to CRAN

[Graham Williams]

I've packaged up the latest release of rattle and it is now on CRAN - 5.2.0.

Generally it includes a collection of bug fixes and smaller enhancements.

Specifically, given the evolution of the Rattle package to include support functions for the data scientist (fancyRpartPlot(), normVarNames(), ggVarImp(), ...) that many are now using, I have removed RGtk2 as a dependency. Thus the rattle package can be installed wihtout having to install RGtk2. RGtk2 was the largest cause of grief in installing the package. Now, the rattle() command will check the dependency as it does with many other dependencies.

I've also moved the sample data back into the package. Splitting it out into rattle.data (as was previously encouraged by the CRAN team) was confusing and annoying to a number of users.

Please take the opportunity to update and let me know if you see any issues. Thanks.
