Context: Pentium 4 with FreeBSD 5.4 and R 2.2.0 I'm trying to install the package ROracle under R. To start with I installed the oracle8- client from the ports and referred to it via the variable $HOME_ORACLE as /usr/local/oracle8-client. Then I started R. After issuing install. packages("ROracle") R downloaded the needed package and started to compile it but complained: ............................... downloaded 138Kb

So various directories and relating programs are missing! What else should I install to make ROracle work?
