terry hughes (terryhugheskirkcudbright@fsmail.net) reports a bug with a severity of 3
The lower the number the more severe it is.

Short Description
configure file and tcl/tk

Long Description
I have succesfully run configure and gmake with no arguments.

All works ok but of course i can't get pgaccess

I added the arguments to configure

--with-tcl --with-tclConfig=/usr/lib, --with-tkConfig=/usr/lib

The gmake then fails because it can't find the directory libpgtcl

Am I doing it right or is there a bug

Thanks Terry

You spelled those switches wrong (should be "--with-tclconfig",
"--with-tkconfig") but they oughtn't be necessary anyway if you
have tcl installed into the standard system directories.

The gmake then fails because it can't find the directory libpgtcl

This is hard to believe in any case. May we see the exact build
transcript?
