The R-package can be found here . Report bugs here.

To install the package form a local file use 
install.packages("<PATH TO PACKAGE>/SBRect_0.2.6.1.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type="source")
Some users experienced problems installing packages which are based on rjava. The following helped in most cases: 
if (Sys.getenv("JAVA_HOME")!=""){
tmp <-  Sys.setenv(JAVA_HOME="")
install.packages("<PATH TO PACKAGE>/SBRect_0.2.6.1.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type="source")
 Sys.setenv(JAVA_HOME=tmp)
 } else{
 install.packages("<PATH TO PACKAGE>/SBRect_0.2.6.1.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type="source")
 }
