Re: 2.1.94

[Paul E Johnson]

I rather think we ought to find out what is wrong with your system, 
rather than plugging in old rpms. I swear with one hand on the Bible 
that the RPMs for 2.1.140 do work here on several RH7.3 systems and for 
at least one new user this week in swarm-support, so I'm really puzzled 
why you get that one error. It seems to me almost as though some file in 
your tcl/tk distribution must be damaged. I will be stunned if swapping 
out the RPMS makes the problem go away.

If your RedHat system is on the internet, you might consider creating a 
temporary user account for me and privately emailing me the account 
name/pw.  I keep having this suspicion that something obvious has gone 
wrong.

Oh, well.

I found an old copy of that rpm, but I think you will run into problems 
going that way. hdf5 is very fussy about which gcc and glibc you have.

Anyway, I dumped them here:

Note you are looking back a long time there. You might consider 
rebuilding hdf5 from the SRPM file.
