incompatible library version stopping cytofkit loading

[bexy2412]

Hi,

I'm completely new to programming and I'm having a bit of a nightmare with getting cytofkit to work. On Tuesday, after 4 hours of battling error messages with the help of google I got it to load, but then it wouldn't work on Wednesday & hasn't since. I've tried going back to the beginning and I'm currently at this point;

library("cytofkit") Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘cytofkit’: .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'tcltk', details: call: dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) error: unable to load shared object '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/tcltk/libs/tcltk.so': dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.5/Resources/library/tcltk/libs/tcltk.so, 10): Library not loaded: /opt/X11/lib/libfontconfig.1.dylib Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/libtk8.6.dylib Reason: Incompatible library version: libtk8.6.dylib requires version 11.0.0 or later, but libfontconfig.1.dylib provides version 10.0.0

Xquartz and the recommended tools are already installed, and I followed all restart recommendations. I have managed to get it working on a windows PC with R 3.5.1 and cytofkit 3.7, but I really need it to work on my person mac. I've tried going back to R 3.5.1 rather than 3.5.2, but my mac persistently loads 3.5.2.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi, I will be not really helpful because I worked on Windows. Nevertheless, tcl/tk come with the installation of R on any OS. So what you have to solve in the loading of this library, ie the command library(tcltk). Maybe you should reinstall R. If you want to switch between R 3.5.1 and R 3.5.2 using RStudio, look at the "Tools/Global options" which allows you to point to the R version you wish (once installed on your computer). Best.

Hi Samuel,

Understood. We will remove the tcltk package soon. For now we still keep two version of GUI, one using tcltk the other using shinyapp. We will remove the tcltk so that the installation will be much simpler.

Thanks a lot.

Hi, The shiny interface is much more nicer than the tcl/tk one. Nevertheless I think that tcl/tk comes with any default installation of R. As such, I think something goes wrong with Bexy's installation. @bexy2412 you should switch to cytofkit2. Best.
