[R] Trouble installing packages in Gentoo Linux

[Stuart Luppescu]

I'm trying to install packages in Gentoo Linux using install.packages().
The packages download fine, but when it comes to installation, I get
this message:
WARNING: ignoring environment value of R_HOME
/var/tmp/portage/R-1.5.1/image//usr/lib/R/bin/Rcmd:
/var/tmp/portage/R-1.5.1/image//usr/lib/R/bin/Rcmd: No such file or
directory

I have the R_HOME set to the correct value (/usr/lib/R), but I don't
know why it's being ignored. It seems it's looking for Rcmd in the
directory that R was built in (which doesn't exist any more). Any help
here?
