Description:	Hi, I get the error from the bottom of the page: the problem are the two variables: tcl_pkgPath</global/mqm/home/mqusers/mqm/otto/Proj ects/OpMenu2/ext/lib> libdir</global/mqm/home/mqusers/mqm/otto/Projects/Op Menu2/ext/lib> the tclsh was build on a other node where /global is available... the current node does has no /global avilable but tcl tries to install the components in a /globale/... directory >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >make install-libraries /export/home/mqusers/mqm/scripts/OpMenu/tclsh `echo ./installer.tcl` \ -pkg- path /export/home/mqusers/mqm/scripts/OpMenu/ext/li b/tcllib1.7 \ -no-examples -no-html -no-nroff \ -no-wait -no-gui Installing Tcllib 1.7 You have chosen the following configuration ...

User Comments:	andreas_kupries added on 2005-09-27 06:34:11: Logged In: YES user_id=75003 I believe the problem is that the makefile target install-libraries does not define the option -app-path, and so takes a default directly from the executing tcl shell. This was fixed in the CVS Head at March 25.
