Tcl Source Code

If configured with zipfs, targets install-libraries and install-msgs aren't added to the install target, thus the following command has to be run to install it all:
# make install install-libraries install-msgs

Is it expected?

Thanks for the info, I can confirm that if built outside of the Fedora build system it works. In Fedora build system (koji/copr over rpmbuild) it doesn't work even if the stripping is explicitly disabled. I will open related Fedora ticket. Sorry for the noise.

Another remark (looking at the logs):

Please install the fedora package for libtommath as well. Tcl will then use it in stead of its internal libtommath subset.

Hope this helps, Jan Nijtmans

Looking at the log:

find-debuginfo: starting
Extracting debug info from 2 files
objcopy: unable to copy file '/builddir/build/BUILD/tcl-9.0.0-build/BUILDROOT/usr/lib64/libtcl9.0.so'; reason: Permission denied

You can re-add the zip-file after this processing with something like:

cat /builddir/build/BUILD/tcl-9.0.0-build/tcl9.0.0/unix/libtcl9.0.0.zip >>/builddir/build/BUILD/tcl-9.0.0-build/BUILDROOT/usr/lib64/libtcl9.0.so
zip -A /builddir/build/BUILD/tcl-9.0.0-build/BUILDROOT/usr/lib64/libtcl9.0.so

The first command appends the zip-file to the shared library. The second command updates the offsets. This zip-file contains the "init.tcl" and the other required files, so they don't need to be installed separately any more. They simply became part of libtcl9.0.so

Hope this helps, Jan Nijtmans

The same result with build without Fedora downstream patches.

And it seems it's not built-in. If I manually remove it:
# rm -f /usr/share/tcl9.0/init.tcl
# tclsh
application-specific initialization failed: Cannot find a usable init.tcl in the following directories: 
    {} /usr/share/tcl9.0 /usr/lib/tcl9.0 /lib/tcl9.0 /usr/library /library /tcl9.0/library /tcl9.0.0/library /tcl9.0.0/library



This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly.

The build log is here:
https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/jskarvad/TclTK9.0.0/fedora-rawhide-x86_64/08144852-tcl/builder-live.log.gz

I am afraid, I don't understand. I am Fedora packager and I am building distro package from the sources. With Tcl 8.6 the library was installed, with Tcl 9.0.0 it is not installed. I was unable to find any related note regarding it. It also seems on Windows it's installed. I suspect the following lines in the configure script:

if test "${ZIPFS_BUILD}" = 1; then
    if test "${SHARED_BUILD}" = 0; then
       ZIPFS_BUILD=2;

printf "%s\n" "#define ZIPFS_BUILD 2" >>confdefs.h

     else

printf "%s\n" "#define ZIPFS_BUILD 1" >>confdefs.h
\
    fi
    { printf "%s\n" "$as_me:${as_lineno-$LINENO}: result: yes" >&5
printf "%s\n" "yes" >&6; }
else
{ printf "%s\n" "$as_me:${as_lineno-$LINENO}: result: no" >&5
printf "%s\n" "no" >&6; }
INSTALL_LIBRARIES=install-libraries
INSTALL_MSGS=install-msgs
fi

If I am not mistaken if ZIPFS_BUILD is 1 then the INSTALL_LIBRARIES and INSTALL_MSGS aren't set and later in the Makefile:

INSTALL_BASE_TARGETS = install-binaries $(INSTALL_LIBRARIES) $(INSTALL_MSGS) $(INSTALL_TZDATA)
...
INSTALL_TARGETS = $(INSTALL_BASE_TARGETS)...
install: $(INSTALL_TARGETS)

So it's not installed.

I suppose, all this is now in the zip attached to the tcl dll library file.

Check, if tclsh finds the missing content without those installations.
