problems running pgaccess 0.73 and 0.84 with new postgresql 6.3

Hi !

Am currently testing the port update of postgresql 6.3.
After some trouble I got it managed ....

Now I have trouble getting pgaccess running *sigh* :-)

a) if I don't load
/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so
prior
/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpgtcl.so

I get the following failure:

Error in startup script: couldn't load file "/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpgtcl.so": Undefined symbol "_PQfinish" in wish8.0:/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpgtcl.so
while executing
"load /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpgtcl.so"
(procedure "main" line 4)
invoked from within
"main $argc $argv"
(file "/usr/local/bin/pgaccess" line 4507)

Ok, after patching pgaccess to load the other library it looks like
this:

andreas@titan{1062} $ pgaccess
Error in startup script: couldn't load file "/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so": Undefined symbol "_crypt" in wish8.0:/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so
while executing
"load /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so"
(procedure "main" line 3)
invoked from within
"main $argc $argv"
(file "/usr/local/bin/pgaccess" line 4507)

What the hell is this ? ;-)

Somebody with a quick idea, whats different in postgresql 6.3 compared
to 6.2.1 ????

Same when using tcl81/tk81...

This appears to be FreeBSD specific...when v6.3 was released, I started to
play around with pgaccess under Solaris x86, and it run without a
hitch...here, under FreeBSD 3.0-current, I hit the same problem :(

As for what is different compared to 6.2.1...the shorter list would be
what is the same ...

I confirmed, that -current is broken concerning pgaccess
startup. The old pgaccess/postgresql port doesn't run
anymore.

Concerning 6.3.1,

--with-tcl still isn't sufficient, to build the libpgtcl.*
libraries.

My port now again uses USE_TCL=true instead of USE_TCL=yes.

Then there is a problem on your system...I did the -with-tcl on my
FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT machine and it was sufficient to build the libpgtcl.*
libraries...
