Problem configuring postgresql

Long Description
Hi,

I try to configure postgresql-7.2.1 on my linux slackware 8 with gcc-3.0.4,
and i got this :

[...]
checking for tclsh... no
checking for tcl... no
checking for tclConfig.sh... configure: error: unable to locate tclConfig.sh because no Tcl shell was found

But I have tclsh here:
/usr/local/bin/tclsh8.4
and also tclConfig.sh :
/usr/local/lib/tclConfig.sh

It would be great if you could help me with this !

Best regards,

Pierre.

I don't think configure will find it under that name. Do you have it
linked to plain "tclsh"?

You might need to use --with_tclconfig if you can't figure out another
way.
