Re: one more chapter in the sun installation saga

>From what I can see in the swarm archives, this error message seems to
be from having more than one version of tcl/tk on my system.  We have
a system-wide install of tcl7.5 and tk4.1 in /usr/local/lib; I have
tcl/tk 8 in /auto/d2/gnu/lib, installed from the sfi source.

In Makefile.common, I have the following lines:

xpmlibdir = ${prefix}/lib
tcllibdir = /auto/d2/gnu/lib
tklibdir = /auto/d2/gnu/lib
bltlibdir = ${prefix}/lib


>From what I can tell, this should be sufficient to have all subsequent
builds and links look to those libraries for tcl/tk rather than
/usr/local/lib.  The error message I'm getting suggests this isn't so.

All the explicit calls in the makefile refer to /auto/d2/gnu/lib and
libtcl8.0/libtk8.0.  The only reference outside /auto/d2/gnu is to the
X libraries at /usr/openwin/lib; there are no tcl/tk libraries there.

Is it possible that make is still looking to "standard" locations for
these files, despite my settings in Makefile.common?
