There are some warnings earlier in the log about my .Rd files (missing a description of weights and subset in a couple). The only message that I don't completely understand is * checking foreign function calls ... OK * checking R code for possible problems ... NOTE Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) : Tcl/Tk support is not available on this system I'm also curious about this. But I get the same aareg error on the Sun server at work, without the Tcl message, so I know it is not primary.
The most obvious reason would be if Tcl/Tk support is not available on your system.... (a) Which system? (b) Do you have
capabilities("tcltk")
tcltk TRUE
Because so many people assume that tcltk is present, those checks look for unexplained symbols in package tcltk. As it is not on your system, you will not be able to use the symbols and it does not matter. The call is inside try(), so the error is ignored.
