I committed my one-line fix for generic/tclXprofile.c into HEAD.
The problem with profiling under Tcl-8.6 (still seen under 8.6b1) appears to be of Tcl's own doing... See, for example:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2017162&group_id=10894&atid=110894.

The profile-crash is now fixed. Use the patch attached to artifact 1925400:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1925400&group_id=13247&atid=113247
Other self-tests break mostly because the core Tcl changed wordings of its error messages...

Build Tclx Cvs head
Install code
Start up the tclsh associated with the install directory
package require Tclx
buildpackageindex /tmp
couldn't read file "/usr/tcl85/lib/tclx8.4/buildidx.tcl": no such file or directory
The code file buildidx.tcl didn't get installed when the package was installed
Also, note that several other commands - auto_packages, auto_load_file, auto_commands...

When I look at tclx.tcl, version 1.2, I see the code change to force load specifically skipped the help routines, but it also skipped the autoload.tcl and tcllib.tcl functions as well as the code for buildpackageindex . There wasn't anything specifically about leaving this code out, and the TclX.n page wasn't updated to indicate those functions are deprecated.
So, is it expected that these...

I've looked through the ChangeLog file . There's a 2002 reference that indicates says:
* library/tclx.tcl: changed to force loading of most tclx runtime
library files directly
* library/arrayprocs.tcl:
* library/autoload.tcl:
* library/fmath.tcl: minor code cleanup
That seems to imply that the autoload.tcl file was still expected to be used. The...

It appears that other Tclx package library management commands are not being found, but are still documented in Tclx man page. Besides the auto_load_file, I also see
% package require Tclx
8.4
% auto_commands
invalid command name "auto_commands"
% auto_packages
invalid command name "auto_packages"
% searchpath
invalid command name "searchpath"
Note that other commands, such as...

The man page continues to refer to the Tclx help facility (which I always thought was a nice feature). However, the tclhelp command itself no longer appears to be included in the source distribution, and while the Makefile has an install-help target, it doesn't appear to actually install anything.
My own preference would be to see the TclX help facility turned into its own extension, and that...

Tcl 8.5 added an lassign command. Either the TclX lassign is thus redundant, or the TclX lassign performs differently, raising the possibility of a program getting unexpected behavior.
Either the TclX lassign should be removed or it should be renamed (placed into a tclx namespace perhaps?) in a way so that a developer can specify explicitly which operation they wish performed.
