If you don’t care about Tcl/Tk, you could also install R without it. Just
choose “Customize” in the installer and unselect it.
isn’t there a different tcl/tk framework that one can use anyway? I’m
referring to the active state one
(http://www.activestate.com/activetcl/downloads)
That Tcl/Tk is not a 'framework': there are frameworks you can use, but
not with the CRAN distribution of R. See the R-admin manual.

Simon,

Unfortunately HB installs by default in /usr/local and requires full control so
you cannot have native libraries and HB in the same place at the same time. So
essentially you have to pick one or the other. There are two options:
a) install HB in another place. This allows you to keep native libraries in
/usr/local and parallel HB. HB is less tested that way, though, so that's why
HB is shy of recommending it.
b) ignore HB's moaning. It should be ok as long as you don't install tcl/tk via
HB. It may get complicated if dependencies detect tcl/tk so for safety you
could rename the .pc files and the t*Config.sh files if you don't expect to
compile R packages that depend on tcl/tk.
I am ignoring the moanings of brew doctor. I generally try and avoid compiling
R packages if at all possible, and I never used stuff that uses tcl/tk (that I
know of). My main concern is that I want to install SciPy and Python 3
(assuming this can be done in a way that will not get Mavericks throw a fit)
and that might — or not — get some tcl/tk action in. If not, R.app and HB can
live together for all I care.

PS I also asked on apple stack, but I haven’t go any reasonable answer thus
far and I’d rather get going.
