tcl with eggdrop

Post by GhostWolf »

configure: error:

Tcl cannot be found on this system.

Eggdrop requires Tcl to compile. If you already have Tcl installed on
this system, and I just wasn't looking in the right place for it, re-run
./configure using the --with-tcllib='/path/to/libtcl.so' and
--with-tclinc='/path/to/tcl.h' options.

See doc/COMPILE-GUIDE's 'Tcl Detection and Installation' section for more
information.
i get this wheni do ./configure in the eggdrop folder i believe i have tcl installed but i don't know for sure i have downloaded the tcl8.5.8-src.tar.gz and extracted it to my main directory in ubuntu9.10 if anyone can possibly help me on even to manually install tcl all help will be helpful thanks

I had this issue once before it was actually my shell provider that never had tcl installed on their system but normaly ./configure works fine

Ive always gone by the setting up an eggdrop guide http://www.egghelp.org/setup.htm

You are missing the tcl.h file. If you enable the source code repository and install the tcl dev (for development) package you will be able to run ./configure without any of the additional flags.
