[R-sig-Debian] ubuntu hardy packages 32bit no tcltk support

[Ulrich Leopold]

Michael and Vincent,

thanks a lot for the quick responses and solution.

@ Vincent: The third element showed that tcltk support was not compiled
in. Underneath it showed FALSE. But probably was not so clear from the
output I sent.

Thanks again to you both for taking on the issue immediately.

Best wishes,
Ulrich
