Description:

I've found that you need the package `tk` installed on your system to set up package repositories which happens the first time you try to install packages (i.e. install.packages). You also need packages if you run the `setRepositories()` function within the program.

Since missing the package caused somewhat cryptic error, I think it's a good idea to add `tk` as an optional dependency.

Additional
* r 3.2.2-1
* configuration: fresh install without tk installed on the system

Steps to reproduce:
1. install `r` package and ensure `tk` package is not installed on the system
2. run R program
3. either run setRepositories() or attempt to run `install.packages(c("jpeg"))` if R environment hasn't been configured yet

This task depends upon
