I encountered the same problem.  I emailed the maintainer last week but
have not yet received a response.

I don't see a BWidget package on CRAN either.

It is not an R package: it is a Tcl/Tk extension. The rpanel maintainer has been asked to add it to SystemRequirements (along with ca 30 other packages).

If it is not available for your OS, see the instructions here for OS X:
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-devel/R-admin.html#OS-X-packages
But it probably is.
