Those don't look like valid paths to config files to me.  On FC3 they 
would be

/usr/lib/tclConfig.sh
/usr/lib/tkConfig.sh

So even if you have users tcl-8.4.12 and tk-8.4.12 (do you?), your paths 
are almost surely not to config files.

Configure reports what works, including that it is not going to build 
tcl/tk support.  Look back at the relevant parts of its output.

Hi

I am not able to have a working tcltk library in R-2.2.1 inspite of
trying different options suggested in the FAQ's. I am using the
following configure option and I do get the tcltk package installed but
with a missing libs folder.

./configure -prefix= "~R-2.2.1"  --enable-R-shlib --enable-linux-lfs
--with-zlib --with-gnu-ld --with-tcltk
--with-tcl-config="~tcl-8.4.12/lib" --with-tk-config="~tk-8.4.12/lib"

I have ensured that I have a valid tclsh in my path and have even
provided the include path for covering the tcl.h

Operating system: RHEL

The error I get while trying to invoke the libarary for tcltk is:

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'

Execution halted

Any help to identify the cause is highly appreciated.

Respectfully

Gautam
