Dear R users,
I want to install the Rcmdr package in a Quantian linux machine, but, when i
tried that, following commands appeared:
** building package indices ...
* DONE (Rcmdr)
The downloaded packages are in
/tmp/RtmpuOikyk/downloaded_packages> library("Rcmdr")
Loading required package: tcltk
Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) :
Tcl/Tk support is not available on this system
Error: package 'tcltk' could not be loaded> library("tcltk")
Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) :
Tcl/Tk support is not available on this system
Error in library("tcltk") : .First.lib failed for 'tcltk'
I do not know why my OS does not support the Tcl/Tk.
Sincereley....

I believe it normally would. Did you compile R yourself or did it come with Quantian? Did you perchance forget to install the tcl/tk libraries (including devel packages if you did the compile)?> Sincereley.... > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. >

Well, Quantian should already contain Rcmdr, albeit an older version given
that there hasn't been a Quantian release in a while.

Neitehr do I, and Quantian 'as shipped' obviously contains working R,
tcltk,
Rcmdr and a number of other applications.
Did you rebuild R and not build tcl/tk support with it? What does this
command show on your box? tcltk is indicated by the third element:
edd at basebud:~> echo "capabilities()" | R --no-save | tail
-6> capabilities()
jpeg png tcltk X11 http/ftp sockets libxml fifo
TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE

FALSE TRUE TRUE>
