of tcl has
been contacted but he says that a version without thread is provided for
this : tcl 8.3. To test it, I have modified the debian rules file to use
tcl 8.3 instead 8.4 and all is working now. Could you provide a version
of expect that use tcl 8.3 ?
Thanks in advance,
Alain Degreffe
Package: tcl8.4
Version: 8.4.9-1
Severity: important
The forking mechanism is broken in all tcl version compiled with threads.
This is well known for a long time. Upstream Maintainer should fix that but in
the meantime the most secure way is to use Tcl without threads.
Package like expect depend

incompatible with forking
Yes, I'm sorry, but if you need a non-threaded tcl core, you'll have
to use the tcl8.3 packages, which are still provided for just this
reason
