You need to install XQuartz. This is IMO stated somewhat clearly at

("somewhat", because - as always - it seems pretty clear when you know what
its trying to say)
And definitely clear in the R-admin manual:
"Various parts of the build require XQuartz to be installed: see
https://www.xquartz.org/releases/.20 These include the tcltk package and
the X11 graphics device: attempting to use these without XQuartz will
remind you."
Without the actual messages, I cannot check if that corresponds to what
the OP saw. But it probably was from
message("tcltk DLL is linked to ", shQuote(this))
stop("X11 library is missing: install XQuartz from
www.xquartz.org",
and he omitted the second line ....

Hello,
I'm having an issue with R looking for tcltk in the wrong place. Whenever
I start R, I get a message: tcltk DLL is linked to
'/opt/X11/lib/libX11.6.dylib'. However, there is no /opt/X11 on my system
and tcltk is really in /opt/R/arm64, where the R binary installer put it.
Where is R getting the /opt/X11 path and how do I correct that? So far I've
tried exporting DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=opt/R/arm64:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to my
environment in my zprofile, but that hasn't worked.
Possibly relevant details:
M2 MacBook Pro, MacOS Sonoma 14.4.1
R.version 4.3.3 installed with binary installer from CRAN.
Thanks in advance,
Gregory
