Re: TkExtra

[Paul E. Johnson]

Would you mind doing an ldd on the executable. I was getting errors
like this with swarm 104 under Redhat 5.0 because I had both the
tcl/tk libraries for 7.4/7.6 and 8.0 on my system.  No matter what
environment variables I set, it always went to /usr/lib and found
the newest shared object library and used it.

That would tell if the compiled program is linked properly.
