Thanks, Seth - tcltk was FALSE, and installing the RPMs did the trick. I 
did not have to have the tcl/tk packages before (I compile R on a 
machine without them, but use R on other machines where they are present).

I ran into another issue, though: Ruuid was not installed (it's required 
by graph and Rgraphviz). When I tried to reinstall it manually, I got this:

 > getBioC("Ruuid")
Running getBioC version 1.2.69....
If you encounter problems, first make sure that
you are running the latest version of getBioC()
which can be found at: www.bioconductor.org/getBioC.R

Please direct any concerns or questions to bioconductor at stat.math.ethz.ch.

Error in getBioC("Ruuid") :
