R help - Jul 2010 - sqldf 0.3-5 package or tcltk problem

This is my first post. I am running Mac OS X version 10.6.3. I am running R
2.11.0 GUI 1.33 64 bit.

This may or may not be related to sqldf, but I experienced this problem while
attempting to use an sqldf query. The same code runs with no problem on my
Windows machine. Here is what happens:
> r=sqldf("select ... ")
Loading required package: tcltk
Loading Tcl/Tk interface ...

Then it never loads.

I have X11 open.

I have all the latest versions of all the necessary packages for sqldf 0.3-5:

DBI 0.2-5
RSQLite 0.9-1
RSQLite.extfuns 0.0.1
gsubfn 0.5-3
proto 0.3-8
chron 2.3-35

Although it gives warning messages for these:

package 'sqldf' was built under R version 2.11.1
package 'RSQLite' was built under R version 2.11.1
package 'RSQLite.extfuns' was built under R version 2.11.1
package 'gsubfun' was built under R version 2.11.1

What can I do to load the Tcl/Tk interface?

Some things to try:

- upgrade to R 2.11.1
- try this alone: library(tcltk)
