Re: [Swarm-Support] mac osx last ditch

[Jonathan Impett]

Thanks - I've tried installing on a completely clean 10.2 on a 
different machine (powerbook G3 instead of a pbG4) in case I had 
rogue installs left around, amd fixing the path - but the results are 
the same! The non-graphic swarm apps run happily, heatbugs etc all 
give:

 [Jonathan-Impetts-Computer:~/swarmapps-2.1.1/heatbugs] jonathan% ./heatbugs
error: TkExtra (instance)

Abort

	I guess I'm doing something wrong in the tk installation, 
therefore. The packages all appear in (and only in) /Receipts. The 
sequence was as follows:
OS X Developer, X11, X11SDK (all from Apple)
BLT, gcc, gsed, tclX, tkX, hdf5, libpng, swarmx (latest) (all from swarmx)
download & unzip swarmapps2.1.1
setenvs as described in ReadMe
make heatbugs (complains only about missing dir /billn and multiply 
defined _tclStubsPtr, _tclPlatStubsPtr, _tclIntPlatStubsPtr, 
_tclIntStubsPtr, _TclInitStubs)
