[R] Problem installing ROracle package under R

[Vittorio]

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:

Warning message:

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