Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: tktable
Installing 6.10 (edgy eft) libtktable-dev/libtktable (installed both so I'm not
100% sure which is faulty) installs a bad pkgIndex.tcl file which makes it
impossible
for Tcl users to:
package require Tktable
/usr/lib/Tktable2.9/pkgIndex.tcl as installed:
if {[catch {package require Tcl 8.2}]} return
package ifneeded Tktable 2.9 \
[list load [file join $dir libTktable2.9.a] Tktable]
the ".a" in the last line of the file should be a ".so" instead
as load must be directed at shared objects. As is,
attempts to load the package result in complaints about the .a
not having a proper ELF header format.
** Affects: tktable (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
** Description changed:
