The RPM for tclx-8.4.0-5.fc6 seems to me to be broken.
The RPM delivers /usr/lib/tclx8.4/

It runs ldconfig after install, but this won't find the .so file.
I think the .so should be put in to /usr/lib
This is how the tcl RPM behaves.
[The 64 bit version treats /usr/lib64 in the same fashion]
Am I missing something?

This?
package require Tclx
Sorry John, I've either missed something else or you need to use more words.
On my system, I have installed tclx using the above named RPM.
I can see that it has installed /usr/lib/tclx8.4/libtclx8.4.so but when I
then try to run an executable which has been built against it, it fails to
load because that file can't be found.
If I tweak my system or my environment I can make it work. My question is
shouldn't a well behaved RPM do that for me?
