[R] R 2.7.2 upgrade in Ubuntu, tcltk does not work any more
Hello, I had no problems running R with tcltk until the recent upgrade to R-2.7.2-2gustsy1 (I use Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon). Since the upgrade from R-2.7.2-1, I got this error (see hereunder). Obviously, I have now a problem with tcltk-related .so files. What should I do? Thanks.
