Okay, thanks. I just tried this: % cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/devel/8.4/prefix -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$HOME/devel/8.4/prefix .. |& tee cmake.out ... -- Looking for include paths and libraries for Tcl/Tk -- Found Tclsh: /home/furnish/devel/8.4/prefix/bin/tclsh -- Found TCL: /usr/lib64/libtcl.so -- Found TCLTK: /usr/lib64/libtcl.so -- Found TK: /usr/lib64/libtk.so -- Looking for include paths and libraries for Tcl/Tk - found -- Looking for tclsh -- Looking for tclsh - found -- TCL_TCLSH = /home/furnish/devel/8.4/prefix/bin/tclsh -- TCL_INCLUDE_PATH = /home/furnish/devel/8.4/prefix/include -- TCL_LIBRARY = /usr/lib64/libtcl.so -- Itcl not available or not compatible with current Tcl shell -- TK_INCLUDE_PATH = /home/furnish/devel/8.4/prefix/include;/usr/include -- TK_LIBRARY = /usr/lib64/libtk.so;/usr/lib64/libSM.so;/usr/lib64/libICE.so;/usr/lib64/libX11.so;/usr/lib64/libXext.so I would say that did not work right. Notice that it again is chosing the libs in /usr/lib64, which are the system libs, not the ones in the custom prefix. Or, maybe I did the cmake invocation wrong (again, argh). -Geoff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Plplot-devel mailing list Plplot-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/plplot-devel
