Is this "stock R" or one you compiled yourself? What does capabilities()
say about tcltk?
I don't use Ubuntu, and it is a bit hard to know what kinds of messes
distibution maintainers might cook up, but if capabilities() claims that
tcltk should work, then I might take a look at
ldd /usr/lib64/R/library/tcltk/libs/tcltk.so
or whatever the counterpart is on your system. And also check that
you're not accidentally setting things like LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the wrong
thing in your shell environment.
