It recently came to my attention that my R installation no longer has
tcltk capability.
I can't figure out why or what to do about it.
I built R from source. I configured using the "--with-tcltk" flag. The
build and install *seemed* to go OK, but after realising I didn't have
tcltk capabi
When I have compiled from sourced on Ubuntu, I did NOT include the
"with-tcltk" and it worked fine. Did you try that, please?
Thanks,

In the past I have configured without using the "--with-tcltk" flag,
and R of course built just fine. But it *did not* have tclt

As I said, this idea makes absolutely no sense, but OK, I tried it.
And of course it didn't work.
Using the newly built R I ra

That should probably work, but I wonder whether the root cause might be
non-installation of Ubuntu "-devel" (or is it "-dev"?) Tcl and Tk packages. It
doesn't look quite right to have to tell R's configure about a path that
depends on the current Tcl/Tk version. I would have expected that tclCon
Did you istall the tcl- and tk-devel packages?

Rolf,
A few quick points as I just noticed this thread (as I don't regularly dip
into r-help any more):
1) You really do not need to builds R locally on Ubuntu. I update the
Debian package hours after Peter cuts a release. Michael rolls Ubuntu
releases off these typically the same or

Yes it helped. Thank you. I don't really understand why, but.

Seems like you have a system with a /usr/lib64 dir for 64 bit libraries, but
Tcl files in /usr/lib. If that is not an anomaly, it looks like we have a
