Subject: [Tcl-nap-users] broken install on linux?

=20

Greetings All,

=20

I have downloaded the linux binary:

=20

nap5_0_5Linux_i386_install

=20

I have the latest "batteries included" Tcl/Tk installed from
ActiveState.

=20

When I open tclsh, wish, or tkcon I get the message:

=20

home directory =3D /home/ezaron

tcl_library =3D /usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib/tcl8.4

couldn't load file "/usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib/libnap5.0.so": libssl.so.4:


cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

unknown namespace in import patern "::NAP::*"

=20

I am running on a pentium 4 laptop undo Ubuntu Breezy. I installed=20

tcl-nap to my main tcl directory:

=20

/usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib

=20

and I see that the libnap5.0.so is in this directory. I have=20

libssl.so.0.9.7 installed at /usr/lib and I tried adding this to my=20

auto_path, but it didn't help. My auto_path already includes=20

/usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib .

=20

I recently had a similar report from Edward King, who is using Fedora 4
Linux.

Shared libraries seem to be a nightmare - especially under Linux!

I'm afraid I have not got an immediate solution. I need to investigate
further.

=20

Any help would be appreciated. I tried downloading the source, but I=20

couldn't find a readme, and the obvious ./configure ; make didn't work=20

(it seemed like I couldn't set the correct path to the HDF headers or=20

build with --with-HDF=3Dno).

=20

There are no options to suppress HDF, netCDF, etc. Compiling nap is a
bit tricky.

=20

Sorry I have no better news,

Harvey
