Re: [R] tcltk package problems (R 2.2.0, SuSE 10)

2005-10-28 Thread Katharine Mullen

i also had a problem getting 2.2.0 to work with tcltk on SuSE 10.0...
and with compiling R from source on SuSE 10.0.

on getting tcltk to work:

i ended up taking source for tcl and tk from
http://www.tcl.tk/software/tcltk/
and recompiling; once you unpack the tar.gz the install instructions are
in the directory /unix for both programs.  after that then

 capabilities()

shows tcltk is TRUE and it works fine.  i'm not sure if this was the
easiest solution, but it worked.

on getting SuSE 10 to compile R from source:  i was unable to use Yast to
get a fortran compiler and ended up recompiling gcc to include
gfortran from the source  (at e.g.
http://gcc.fyxm.net/releases/gcc-4.0.2/  )  if you want some more detailed
instructions feel free to mail me.

best regards and good luck.

[R] tcltk package problems (R 2.2.0, SuSE 10)

2005-10-27 Thread Rainer M. Krug
Hi

I installed R 2.2.0 from source and I have the packages for tcl and tk 
installed on my system, but the package tcltk says, when I try to load 
the library tcltk: Tcl/Tk support is not available on this system.

Are there any settings / variables which I have to set so that R 
recognises that Tcl/Tk support is installed on the system?

Rainer
