Re: installing: stuck in tcl/tk |

Hello,
Thanks to Alex for advice below, sent to the last email.
Unfortunately, I have found out that tcl/tk8.4 does not work with BLT.
I am resorting to the earlier version, which is available from fink.
I have since installed all the libraries required by swarm using
FinkCommander. Everything appears to be where it should and it's the
version numbers stated on the swarm site.. When I run the configure
script it gets stuck at this line:
checking for X11/xpm.h... yes
checking for tclsh8.3... yes
checking directory of tcl.h... /sw/include
checking directory and version of libtcl... no
configure: error: Please specify Tcl library path using --with-tcldir
I run configure like this
./configure --with-defaultdir=/sw --with-tcldir=/sw
--with-tcllibname=libtcl.dylib
Fink puts everything it installs into the /sw directory, which is
structured much like /usr (contains bin, include local...). The /sw
directory used by fink is also part of the $path variable. The
previous output from configure show it finding things like X11, which
also live in /sw. The switches used with configure don't seem to make
any difference to being able to find libtcl. It acts the same without
them.
Have I got those --with directories correct? I take the instructions
to mean that the variable is the directory directly above the lib and
include directories that house tcl, etc. In this case, /sw. So far,
my best guess is that I've misunderstood what goes in the directory
variable.

Hi
I am running the configure script for the latest snapshot of swarm to
install it on a Mac running Xfree86 and OroborosX with OS10.2. I
have tcl/tk8.4.0 installed. Unfortunately, the configure script only
looks for 8.3 and earlier. The 8.4 version has installed everything
by default in the /usr/local/ paths. in this install there does not
appear to be a tclsh link to the the tclsh8.4 executable.
Why do not use the ./configure --prefix=/neededdir during the
cmpilation of all software?
I use this tips (my directory is /home/alex/swarm) so in that
directory I have either the needed software, either the swarm >
libaries.
Hope this help
