[Gcl-devel] Re: bizarre static make gcl-tk problem

[Camm Maguire]

Greetings!  This appears to be because you have no libtk8.3.a, only a
libtk8.3.so in your LIBRARY_PATH (or default library path).  True?  On
Debian, both libs are installed in the same package.

As gcltkaux is run externally to GCL, dynamic linking should be fine.
Will look into the strange error you report separately in replying to
your other email.

Take care,
