[R-SIG-Mac] tcltk

[Simon Urbanek]

Most recent tcltk is trying to detect the source of Tcl/Tk using otool to make sure all necessary libraries are present. However, older system don't have otool installed by default so this will fail if you don't have Xcode installed which provides otool. It seems that this is the case on your machine, installing Xcode command line tools should fix the issue.

Cheers,
Simon
