[Qgis-user] R example scripts in QGIS Sextante Toolbox: complains about SAGA

Executing "R CMD BATCH" in the shell produces nothing on my system (ubuntu 
with R including its development packages). Asking for the exit code of the 
command with "echo $?" I get "1" meaning failure.

Do I need to have SAGA to run R-Scripts via SEXTANTE?
