what does "/sbin/ldconfig -v | grep -i tcl" give?
on one of my systems that has tcl:
[aphro@portal:~]$ /sbin/ldconfig -v | grep -i tcl
libtcl8.0.so.1 -> libtcl8.0.so.1
/sbin/ldconfig: Can't create temporary cache file /etc/ld.so.cache~:
Permission denied
[aphro@portal:~]$
if you installed tcl in another terminal the first terminal may not
see it yet. usually logout/login again, or su to root, run ldconfig,
and exit back to normal user and it may see it again. what tcl packages
do you have installed? (dpkg -l | grep tcl). My system:
[aphro@portal:~]$ dpkg -l | grep tcl
ii tcl8.0 8.0.5-6 The Tool Command Language (TCL) v8.0 - Run-T
