Hello all,



I have a problem with the connection to a Postgresql database in R.
At first, some system information:
Fedora 2.0, 
R 3.1.0 compiled from source, 
Postgresql 9.2

I installed the RPostgreSQL package in R with all the dependencies
also. 

When I'm trying to connect to the database using the following commands:

library(DBI)
library(RPostgreSQL)
drv <- dbDriver("PostgreSQL")
con <- dbConnect(drv,
dbname="Litava",host="localhost",port=1234,user="postgres",password="****")

I'm getting an error message:
ERROR:
RS-DBI driver

with no other error specification. Do have somebody an idea could be
wrong with this?

Thank You in advance for any advice

Tomas
