R help - Jul 2024 - Problem loading BiodiversityR, Error: package ‘tcltk’ could not be loaded

Hi,

I get the following error when trying to load the BiodiversityR package
> library(> library(BiodiversityR)
Loading required package: tcltk
tcltk DLL is linked to '/opt/X11/lib/libX11.6.dylib'
Error: package or namespace load failed for ?tcltk?:
 .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'tcltk', details:
  call: fun(libname, pkgname)
  error: X11 library is missing: install XQuartz from www.xquartz.org
Error: package ?tcltk? could not be loaded


In my package library I can see ?tcltk2? but not ?tcltk?.

Have see a few others online facing the same issue.

Can you help ?

Thanks.

Adam

Does the problem go away if you install XQuartz from www.xquartz.org?

"R installation and administration" section 4 also documents the
requirement to have XQuartz installed in order to use the tcltk package
(which is part of R itself) and the x11() device:
https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#Installing-R-under-macOS

For macOS-specific problems, r-sig-mac at r-project.org may give you more
precise advice. If installing XQuartz doesn't help, make sure to
provide your sessionInfo() output.
