[Tclxml-users] Problems building tclxml with expat on linux

[Forest W <lyr...@ww...>]

I am trying to build the compiled version of tclxml (using expat) on
red hat linux 7.3.  Following the instructions in the README file, I
am able to configure, make, and install from the tclxml-2.6 directory.
I then change to the tclxml-2.6/expat directory, and configure (using
the same args as the previous configure) runs just fine, but make
produces this error:

make: *** No rule to make target `tclexpat.o', needed by
`libTclexpat2.6.so'.  Stop.

The expat Makefile appears to expect tclexpat.c to be in the current
directory, when it is actually in the parent dir.  I have tried to
work around this problem, but just ran into other errors.  How do I
get the expat part of tclxml to build?
