All I did was ./configure and make. This is the default layout for Scid 4.6.2: https://a.fsdn.com/con/app/proj/scid/screenshots/Scid-4.6.2.png
I tried with Ubuntu 14.10 and works fine. To have a clean install: 1) Remove old scid configurations: rm -R ~/.scid 2) List all installed tcl/tk packages dpkg -l | grep tcl8 dpkg -l | grep tk8 3) Remove installed packages sudo apt-get purge tcl8.5 sudo apt-get purge libtcl8.5 ...etc... 4) Repeat point 2) to verify that all the packages has been removed 5) Install tcl/tk 8.6 |sudo apt-get install tk8.6 tcl8.6-dev 6) Download Scid 4.6.2 http://sourceforge.net/projects/scid/files/Scid/Scid%204.6/scid-4.6.2.zip/download 7) Extract to a directory 8) compile ./configure make sudo make install | If ./configure fails with "tclsh: not found" use: tclsh8.6 configure make sudo make install Hope it helps, Fulvio ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Scid-users mailing list Scid-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/scid-users
