You're quit right, they weren't present and it took me some time to
install the rpm's for tl/tck. However I can't find any good labltk rpms
for suse, so I've run ./configure in the ocam-3.07 dir, and the last
lines of the log where:

<quote>
Configuring LablTk...
tcl.h version 8.4 found with "".
tk.h found.
Tcl library found.
Tk library not found.
Configuration failed, LablTk will not be built.
<end quote>

So, there is some progress. However the meaning of Tk library is not yet
clear. A look with Google didn't do the job and my books of Running
Linux & a Nutshell didn't clear the meaning of 'library' out.

For the time being I haven't install the labltk-rpm packages and I can
see that ./configure tries to built the lablgtk?? Or not??

Any good thoughts??

Tnx already
