In view of various bits of advice I've received I tried:
(1) sudo apt-get install r-base r-base-dev
The result:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
r-base is already the newest version.
r-base-dev is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer
required:
linux-headers-2.6.32-28-generic linux-headers-2.6.32-28
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
No improvement in the situation; capabilities("tcltk") still returns FALSE.
(2) re-installing R from source, first doing
./configure --with-tcltk
Again no improvement; capabilities("tcltk") still returns FALSE.
WTF? Why do these things always happen to ***me***? :-)
cheers,
Rolf Turner
