Hi WizaRds,

I ran into trouble trying to install the "debug" package, which requires TCL/TK 
support. It seems like the tcltk package is not installed on my system.
From: http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/07/7993.html it seems that the 
tcltk is bundled with the base R distribution.

I'm running R under linux:

> version
               _
platform       i686-pc-linux-gnu
arch           i686
os             linux-gnu
system         i686, linux-gnu
status
major          2
minor          3.1
year           2006
month          06
day            01
svn rev        38247
language       R
version.string Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01)


 tcl8.4 and tk8.4 are both installed.
 
 The messages I get when I try to install the debug package are:

> install.packages("debug")

The downloaded packages are in

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks,

Jack.
