Hi.
Am I the only one who has a problem with tkined since scotty and tcl/tk
have been moved to ELF? The ptoblem is with tkined script which tries to
load tkined1.4.9.so, which in turn SHOULD load libtk.so, but it CANNOT
do it. The output is:
joy@y:~> tkined
Error in startup script: couldn't load file
"/usr/local/lib/tkined1.4.9.so": /usr/local/lib/tkined1.4.9.so:
Undefined symbol "Tk_CanvasTagsParseProc"
while executing
"load /usr/local/lib/tkined1.4.9.so"
("package ifneeded" script)
invoked from within
"package require -exact Tkined 1.4.9"
(file "/usr/local/bin/tkined1.4.9" line 12)
I know there are some difficulties with implementing such dynamic
loading from dynamic libraries/modules in ELF (don't know details,
unfortunately), and I know GNU libtool can solve them just fine. But
whis would require using libtool for scotty port (and probably for
tcl/tk ports). Anyway, as I suppose, libtool just automatically passes
some "magic" flags and paths to a linker. I don't know which exactly.
ELF linking gurus, please help.
