I took a look at this and attached to the R process during the byte compilation. Looks like it's stuck in an infinite loop that continuously looks through the r-tcltk2 package files. Other packages that depend on tcltk2 (PDE) seem to work fine, so something specific to RclusTool is triggering this.

Yeah it was missing from the list of packages requiring X.

Thanks for your answer. I will think about giving another chance to Nixos. (I went back to Linux, because I couldn’t use R and its packages properly…)

No worries, you can always run Nix on top of your current distribution and see if R is suitable for your needs without installing NixOS. A healthy R ecosystem is very important to me as we use R heavily in my lab. Tag me in on any R related issues you might have and I'll do my best to resolve them.
