Warning: package needs dependence on R

When checking a package, even on efficiently compressed data (i.e. using save(iris, file = "somedata.RData", version = 2, compress='xz') sometimes we see:

* checking data for ASCII and uncompressed saves ... WARNING
  Warning: package needs dependence on R (>= 2.10)

What does this mean and how can it be fixed?

You may be missing a declaration of which R version your package Depends on in DESCRIPTION

In the case above where

Warning: package needs dependence on R (>= 2.10)

simply add this line to DESCRIPTION

Depends: R (>= 2.10)
