Problems installing eggdrop 1.6.15

[nephi]

Hey

I'm trying to install eggdrop 1.6.15 on Redhat 8 with tcl 8.4.3
I think I got the installation correct for tcl.

oh btw I'm a n00b at linux. - Thought I'd just it out of the way first.

I tried this,

1.View your Makefile, look for the line (should be close to the top) that says:

XREQ = /usr/local/lib/libtcl7.4.a
*note your XREQ might be XREQS also
REMEBER THE PATH
2. Then go back into your home directory and do the following
mkdir lib
cd lib
ln -s (path from XREQ(S)) libtcl.a
3. go back into your eggdrop dir and do ./configure and make again and it should go smoothly


hope this helps you

but when I went to restart the whole compiling process it screwed up in "make" and came up with this error

Successful compile: eggdrop

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/nephi/eggdrop1.6.15/eggdrop1.6.15/src'

./eggdrop: error while loading shared libraries: libtcl8.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
make: *** [modegg] Error 127

Instead of doing it at "make install", I have no idea what to do to fix it.

Please help

Sounds like make cannot find the Tcl library. Try to reinstall Tcl...
