./configure problem with tcl

Post by AnT2nY »

Hi,
I am having trouble installing the eggdrop on my shell account.
the root has installed these for me:
tk.i386 8.4.7-2 installed
tcl.i386 8.4.7-2 installed
tclx.i386 8.3.5-4 installed
The OS of the box is Centos 4

The Error message i get when i type ./configure --with- tcllib='/usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so' is:

configure will now attempt to autodetect both the Tcl library and header.
checking for Tcl library... using /lib
checking for Tcl header... using /
checking whether the Tcl system has changed... yes
checking for Tcl version...
checking for Tcl patch level...
configure: error:

Your Tcl version is much too old for Eggdrop to use. You should
download and compile a more recent version. The most reliable
current version is 8.4.6 and can be downloaded from
ftp://tcl.activestate.com/pub/tcl/tcl8_4/.

but the tcl installed is 8.4.7 .. maybe this is too new?

Can Anyone help????
Thanx in advance
