Why 1.6.21 ? Eggdrop is now in version 1.9.5, the 1.6.xx branch is dead since 2016

try this

CFLAGS="-std=gnu89" ./configure --with-tclinc=/usr/include/tcl8.6/tcl.h --with-tcllib=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcl8.6.so

Installation completed.

You MUST ensure that you edit/verify your configuration file.
An example configuration file, eggdrop.conf, is distributed with Eggdrop.

Remember to change directory to /home/scoot/eggdrop before you proceed.

That worked Thank You!

a specific .tcl will only work on that version of eggdrop ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm quite surprized, usually scripts working with 1.6.21 works with 1.8.x and 1.9.x, sometime they require a few adaptation but there is no real incompatibility.

Peharps we can help you with the script rather helping you keepin an old version of eggdrop
