Greetings I have a Mac PowerBook with 10.4.11 that did not have R on it but it did have X11 1.1.3 - Free86 4.4.0 but no Xcode Tools
So I installed R-2.9-branch-48932.dmg Then with the GUI and Package Manager tried to install tcltk; got the same error message you did Then installed tcltk-8.5.5-X11.dmg; and the error went away and install proceeded to done This would suggest install from scratch, tho painful, would solve the problem > From: Mikhail Beketov <[email protected]> > Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2009 14:08:25 +0200 > To: Marc Schwartz <[email protected]> > Cc: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [R-SIG-Mac] tcltk > > Dear Marc, Dear All, > > Yes, I did check it with Disk Utility.
