R-tcltk does exist; it's provided by R-core:

     $ rpm -q --whatprovides R-tcltk
     R-core-2.9.2-1.fc10.x86_64

And R-core is what requires tk:

     $ rpm -q --requires R-core | fgrep tk
     libtk8.5.so()(64bit)

So, should I leave in the requirement (in case, for example, the R-tcltk 
bindings are later moved into a separate package), or should I remove 
the requirement under the assumption that R-tcltk will always be 
provided by R-core?

Cheers,
Tom
