Whether Tcl/Tk would available was determined when you installed R. The relevant information was in the configure output and log, which we don't have. You are not running a released version of R: please don't use the development version unless you are familiar with the build process and know how to debug such things yourself. The rule is that questions about development versions of R should not be asked here but on R-devel (and not to R-core which I have deleted from the recipients). I suggest reinstalling R (preferably R-patched) and if tcltk still is not available sending the relevant configure information to the R-devel list. > Also, note that I have some warning messages on starting up R, not sure > what they mean or if they are pertinent. Those are coming from a Bioconductor package: again you must be using development versions with R-devel and those are not stable (last time I looked even Biobase would not install, and the packages change daily). If you have all those packages in your startup, please don't -- there will be a considerable performance hit so only load them when you need them. > > Thanks, Mark > > Warning messages: > 1: In .updateMethodsInTable(fdef, where, attach) : > Couldn't find methods table for "conditional", package "Category" may > be out of date > 2: In .updateMethodsInTable(fdef, where, attach) : > Methods list for generic "conditional" not found > > require(tcltk) > Loading required package: tcltk > Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) : > Tcl/Tk support is not available on this system > > sessionInfo() > R version 2.6.0 Under development (unstable) (2007-08-01 r42387) > i686-pc-linux-gnu > > locale: > LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8;LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8;LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8;LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8;LC_PAPER=en_US.UTF-8;LC_NAME=C;LC_ADDRESS=C;LC_TELEPHONE=C;LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.UTF-8;LC_IDENTIFICATION=C > > attached base packages: > [1] splines tools stats graphics grDevices utils datasets > [8] methods base > > other attached packages: > [1] affycoretools_1.9.3 annaffy_1.9.1 xtable_1.5-0 > [4] gcrma_2.9.1 matchprobes_1.9.10 biomaRt_1.11.4 > [7] RCurl_0.8-1 XML_1.9-0 GOstats_2.3.8 > [10] Category_2.3.19 genefilter_1.15.9 survival_2.32 > [13] KEGG_1.17.0 RBGL_1.13.3 annotate_1.15.3 > [16] AnnotationDbi_0.0.88 RSQLite_0.6-0 DBI_0.2-3 > [19] GO_1.17.0 limma_2.11.9 affy_1.15.7 > [22] preprocessCore_0.99.12 affyio_1.5.6 Biobase_1.15.23 > [25] graph_1.15.10 > > loaded via a namespace (and not attached): > [1] cluster_1.11.7 rcompgen_0.1-15 > > > > -- Brian D.
