i downloaded eggdrop yesterday and now i want to install it.

but when i type "./configure" an error is shown wich says that my the needed TCL Files are not found. but they are installed. so how can i change the directory where the configure script searches for.

does somebody know this error? do i need the TCL-devpackage?

heeelp im a newbie

If you are using suse, then yes, you do need the DEV package. Suse doesn't install the header files by default.

It should tell you which files have not been detected.

jes im using suse.

so you say that i should download the TCL-DEV package and install it.
the setup says that TCL or something with the letters TCL is not found...

where i can find that tcl-devpackage?

5. There's no Tcl installed on your shell

If there's really no Tcl installed on your shell, you can install
it temporarily in /tmp or your /home. Get the latest version of Tcl from
ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/ and follow the installation steps in its
README file. After you've installed Tcl, you have to make configure detect
Tcl. To achieve this, you have to set either environmental variables:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/tcl/lib
export TCLLIB=/path/to/tcl/lib
export TCLINC=/path/to/tcl/include

Please note that on some UNIX machines export doesn't work, and you
have to use 'setenv' instead or to pass configure the full qualified
path to Tcl:

./configure --with-tcllib=/path/to/libtclx.x.so
--with-tclinc=/path/to/tcl.h

Copy/Paste'd from eggdrop1.6.13/doc/configure.FAQ

It explains on how to install TCL. Get it going buddy. However, as ppslim said, you might wanna get the dev package. I'm not really sure of it. But this is the thing to install TCL. (the normal TCL atleast)

Good luck
