You are right.  I have both the i386 and x86_64 RPMs installed.

            

      
      
      
    

        
Thank you!  This works like a charm.

You are right.  As Martyn suggested, configure picked up
/usr/lib/{tcl,tk}Config.sh instead of /usr/lib64/{tcl,tk}Config.sh
because I have both i386 and x86_64 versions of the RPMs installed.

            

      
      
      
    

        
Typically me! :-)


Thanks, both of you!

At a closer look, R was searching /usr/lib before /usr/lib64 which seems 
sub-optimal, so I have reversed this (and added /usr/local/lib64 to the 
list before /usr/local/lib).  Nevertheless, for some builds (e.g.
32-bit R on 64-bit Linux) you will need to specify the paths as the manual 
says.
