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

Thanks

If this is your own syste, you need to run "ldconfig" as root.

However, if it's hired shell account,t hen you will need to speak to the admin of the account, to ask thyem to do this.

Alternativly, follow the instructions as defined in the eggdrop readme files, and other documentation in the docs dir.

Does that ldconfig require a restart?
It makes the same error after I ran ldconfig, I don't want to restart without needing to.

I had the same thing. Easy to fix:
add '/usr/local/lib' to '/etc/ld.so.conf' and run 'ldconfig'.
Then just run "make" again, and it wil do it's job!

good luck!
