It sounds reasonable enough, except tk-8.3.5 doesn't seem to come with pkgIndex.tcl file afaict. Fixed in the new tcl and tk 8.4 package just built. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686) Gecko/20030703 Galeon/1.3.7 Description of problem: There is a mis-build with tcl for finding TK. This becomes manifest with i8kmon in the i8kutils (freshrpms). According to the i8kmon man page: On some Linux distributions i8kmon exits with an error like this: can�t find package Tk while executing "package require Tk" This is not a bug in i8kmon. It means that Tcl/Tk files are not installed correctly on your system and the Tk library can�t be dynamically loaded from Tcl. In this case you can run i8kmon with the command: wish /usr/bin/i8kmon -- [options...] and in the readme from debian: You should also report the bug to the maintainer of the Tcl/Tk package included in your Linux distribution. A quick fix for the problem could also be adding the following line to /usr/lib/tk8.3/pkgIndex.tcl: package ifneeded Tk 8.3 [list load "/usr/lib/libtk8.3.so.1" Tk] Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 8.3.5 90.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. type i8kmon 2. 3. Actual Results: $ i8kmon can't find package Tk while executing "package require Tk" (procedure "make_ui" line 15) invoked from within "make_ui" (procedure "main" line 4) invoked from within "main" invoked from within "if {$tcl_interactive == 0} { main vwait exit }" (file "/usr/bin/i8kmon" line 670) Expected Results: program runs Additional info:
