locate pkgIndex.tcl returns the following list (excluding private and
source directories):

/usr/lib/tcl8.3/http1.0/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/lib/tcl8.3/http2.3/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/lib/tcl8.3/msgcat1.1/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/lib/tcl8.3/opt0.4/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/lib/tcl8.3/tcltest1.0/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/local/lib/tcl8.4/http2.4/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/local/lib/tcl8.4/http1.0/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/local/lib/tcl8.4/opt0.4/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/local/lib/tcl8.4/msgcat1.3/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/local/lib/tcl8.4/tcltest2.2/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/local/lib/tk8.4/pkgIndex.tcl
/usr/local/lib/Tkzinc3.2.94/pkgIndex.tcl

The /usr/lib bits are from the standard RedHat install, and the
/usr/local/lib ones are from my own install, but this version is
apparently not used.
