So you need to put /usr/local/bin in your path.  Please ask your 
Linux help about this (how to do it does depend on the shell you use).

Note that you should not actually need R in your path to install a 
well-written package: but ROracle is not in that category.

Setting Oracle up on Linux requires far more expertise than this step, 
and that using RODBC or RJBDC are much simpler ways to access an 
Oracle database than ROracle, provided the appropriate drivers are 
available (something you can pass on to the Oracle sysadmins).
