I saw from http://rversions.r-pkg.org/r-release-win, it has a URL field:
"URL": "https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/R-3.4.1-win.exe"
If we go to use this URL, maybe we don't need to combine rurl below?

Oh, I saw there is old/ path. Then we still need to manually combine rurl.

Yes, but I think it'd be a good idea if we introduce something like latest as discussed in #15709 later.

This PR proposes to use https://rversions.r-pkg.org/r-release-win instead of https://rversions.r-pkg.org/r-release to check R's version for Windows correctly.
We met a syncing problem with Windows release (see #15709) before. To cut this short, it was ...
https://rversions.r-pkg.org/r-releasereturns the latest as 3.3.2 and the download link for 3.3.1 becomeswindows/base/oldby our scriptwindows/base/oldbutwindows/baseas the latestwindows/base/oldlink and builds were brokenI believe this problem is not only what we met. Please see krlmlr/r-appveyor@01ce943 and also this
r-release-winAPI came out between 3.3.1 and 3.3.2 (assuming to deal with this issue), please seehttps://github.com/metacran/rversions.app/issues/2.Using this API will prevent the problem although it looks quite rare assuming from the commit logs in https://github.com/metacran/rversions.app/commits/master. After 3.3.2, both
r-release-winandr-releaseare being updated together.How was this patch tested?
AppVeyor tests.
