roracle in linux
Hello. This is a copy of my email to r-sig-deb I'm trying install roracle in my debian 64 bit system. I've read the http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/ROracle/INSTALL and I've installed Oracel Instant Client by rpm package (using alien to deb convert). When I try to install I write export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH in terminal and then I download ROracle_1.1-1.tar.gz from cran and I type sudo R CMD INSTALL ROracle_1.1-1.tar.gz where I've downloaded the tar.gz file. I always get the same error jose at jose-laptop:~/Descargas$ sudo R CMD INSTALL ROracle_1.1-1.tar.gz * installing to library '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library' * installing *source* package 'ROracle' ... ** package 'ROracle' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked configure: error: OCI libraries not found ERROR: configuration failed for package 'ROracle' * removing '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/ROracle' and I don't understand why. any idea? Thanks.
