An application of mine is written using Tcl/tk and a number of C routines which are compiled into Tcl and, hence, requires that Tcl and Tk be compilable on a platform on which I intend to run it. The program has always worked well on RedHat linux and Windows NT. Code compiled under the last version of RedHat prior to 5.0 runs under Debian 1.3, but glitches and then crashes after several user inputs. My next thought was to compile the code under Debian and try to run with xxgdb, but I can't even get Tk 80p2 to configure and make under Debian. I've never seen the configure script for Tk fail to work previously on any reasonable version of UNIX and I can't see any obvious thing which it might be looking for which doesn't appear to be there.
Any thoughts? Tck/Tk, by the way, is the first cross-platform development system I've ever seen which I'd give a thumbs-up to and may be the best of all possible shots at bridging the software gap between UNIX and the Windows world. It is handled by Sun microsystems (www.sunscript.com) as is Java, and is regarded as being at least as important as Java; between Tcl and Java at this point, Tcl is the mature technology. Not being able to configure or make Tcl/Tk 8 on any particular unix variant, therefore, is a real serious problem.
