checking for Tcl library... not found
checking for Tcl header... found /usr/local/include/tcl.h
checking whether the Tcl system has changed... yes
configure: error:

I can't find Tcl 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,
set the environment variables TCLLIB and TCLINC so I will know where
to find 'libtcl.a' (or 'libtcl.so') and 'tcl.h' (respectively). Then
run 'configure' again.

Read the README file if you don't know what Tcl is or how to get it
and install it.

can it be that the library file that eggdrop is looking for is called libtcl.a
and the only one i can find among my files is libtcl85.a
do i have the wrong version of tcl??
