Maurice, I believe you have had prior experience with AIX.  There are
no math calls in tclMatrix.c and matrixInit.c, but I am wondering if
(many!) unresolved math symbols in -ltcl8.3 are causing the link problem.

This may be related to our convoluted method of determining the tcl link
line in sysloc.in.  Perhaps better cross-platform support would be automatic
if we use what Rafael was recommending (/usr/share/aclocal/tcl.m4) as a
replacement?

Meanwhile, Don, to move by this, I suggest you disable our tcl front-end.
(--disable-tcl).

I think that the source of most problems is the link command used. On a=20
previous report there were many plplot API entries that were missing,=20
although the command line specifies -lplplot.

Perhaps Don's AIX isn't fully supported by libtool? Although libtool *say=
s*=20
during configure that it *knows* how to build shared libs in the detected=
=20
system!

   checking build system type... powerpc-ibm-aix4.3.3.0
   ...
   checking whether the linker (/bin/ld) supports shared libraries... yes
   ...
   checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes
  =20
I'm afraid that without a AIX system it will be difficult for us to trace=
 and=20
fix the problem.

Yes,=20

1-Disable *everything*,=20
--disable-tcl --disable-tk --disable-itcl --disable-cxx --disable-f77 =20
--enable-dyndrivers --disable-static --enable-shared.
Only the C library will be build with shared libs and dynamic drivers. Do=
n't=20
forget to follow Alan's recomendations and unpack the sources fresh each =
time=20
-- or at least do a "make clean".

2-If the above don't work, the next step will be giving up of shared libs=
 and=20
build only static libs:
 --disable-tcl --disable-tk --disable-itcl --disable-cxx --disable-f77=20
--disable-shared

3-Don, you might need the fortran bindings, but if you can't compile the =
basic=20
C library there is no hope for you (for now, please be patient and wait f=
or=20
5.2.1)

Thanks, Maurice, for answering that question separately.

Actually, Joao, there has now been one further iteration and Don reports
that --disable-cxx --disable-f77 --disable-tcl builds fine on AIX.  There is
one other installation problem we are sorting out at the moment, but once
that is done, I am discussing a possible fix for tcl/tk with Maurice which I
hope that Don would be willing to test before 5.2.1.

The AIX fixes for f77 and C++ are not so obvious so we may have to put those
off until after 5.2.1.

Uh.. -lm ?

Don't forget we have a record of all the flags used in the previous config
system down in cf/.  So:

$ grep lm cf/lib_sh_aix.in 
          $(SHLIB_LIBS) -lc -lm 2>ld.out
          $(SHLIB_LIBS) -lc -lm 2>ld.out
          $(SHLIB_LIBS) -lc -lm 2>ld.out
