Overview
Comment:Minor fix in search oder for Tcl/Tk installations, and implement similar paths to search for in TEA_PATH_CONFIG too.

Stu adds: I believe this is incorrect. The tcl/tk paths should not be searched. TEA_PATH_CONFIG is for extensions, not tcl/tk. Extensions should not be putting their *Config.sh files in tcl/tk dirs. I didn't change anything here because I saw nothing needed changing; I didn't forget or omit.

Was the order changed because the order was problematic?

Undo TEA_PATH_CONFIG changes regarding addtional paths until it's more clear where OpenBSD/FreeBSD stores it's 'official' itclConfig.sh/tdbcConfig.sh. Fix [923f400aa03a5608]: New paths required for Darwin

Stu adds: This has nothing to do with where any one os stores itcl/itkConfig.sh.

It shouldn't matter to *tclconfig* where any anything stores anything, should it?

This is supposed to be a generic routine, used to pick up the *Config.sh of any extension.

There is no "common store" for *Config.sh files on any platform, afaict. Extensions currently keep their *Config.sh files in their own dirs. I believe this to be the case currently for all extensions and platforms. Perhaps changing this convention is a good idea.

The way things are currently, adding dirs for itcl would then mean adding dirs fors tdbc, tdom, etc.? I don't see that as being viable in the long-term. check-in: df3b672e10 user: jan.nijtmans tags: trunk
