When trying to install RPostgreSQL, why do I get package 'DBI' does not have a name space?

I am trying the following command:

r CMD INSTALL RPostgreSQL_0.1-7.tar.gz

I get the following error message:

* installing to library 'C:/.../R/win-library/2.13'
* installing *source* package 'RPostgreSQL' ...
** libs

I installed DBI using

R CMD install DBI_0.1-10.tar.gz

and it appeared to work fine.

I alternatively tried

install.packages('RPostgreSQL_0.1-7')

but get

Warning message: In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) : package ‘RPostgreSQL_0.1-7’ is not available (for R version 2.13.1)

Could something be wrong or unusual with your R installation?

Also, the R development version is in the middle of requiring a NAMESPACE for every package and, if needed, building one for a package does not supply it. But this should affect only R-devel and not the current version. Which version are you running?

Anyway, and for the record, it still installs fine here (R 2.13.1, Ubuntu 11.0, some customization in ~/.R/Makevars)
