Octave-forge tk_octave won't compile.

[Pedro Tarrafeta]

Hi,

I'm trying to install octave-forge tk_octave but I can't get it to compile on 
my Suse Linux 8.2 laptop. Following the instructions I did compile octave 
2.1.50 with support for threads.

Then when I run configure for octave forge I get the following:
............
checking for tcl.h... yes
checking for tk.h... yes
checking for Tcl_Init in -ltcl... no
checking for Tk_Init in -ltk... no
checking for blt.h... yes
checking for Blt_Init in -lBLT... no
checking for vtk/vtk.h... no
................

And then:

octave-forge is configured with
   octave:      octave (version 2.1.50)
   mkoctfile:   mkoctfile for Octave 2.1.50
   X11 support: yes
   tk_octave: TCL/TK missing, BLT missing and without VTK (no 3-D support)
.....................

I have reinstalled Tcl/Tk, messed with this and that and I can't get it right. 
I might be missing something...  any clues?

Regards,
Pedro
