Hi Andrew, I see in the source code (files like plserver.c) that the auto_path variable is treated as a string. It is actually used as a list: tcl_cmd( interp, "set auto_path \"$dir $auto_path\"" ); Given the rules for the automatic conversion of strings to lists, this approach works if no directories contain spaces. To be more robust, however, the above (and any similar commands involving the auto_path variable) should be: tcl_cmd( interp, "set auto_path [list $dir $auto_path]" ); Could you make the changes in tcl/tclAPI.c and tk/plserver.c and then try again? Something similar is happening in pkgIndex.tcl.in, where the searchdirs and dlnames variables should be set to a list too: set searchdirs [list "@LIB_HARDDIR@"] # prefer double precision version set dlnames [list "@DLNAME_LIBPLPLOTD@" "@DLNAME_LIBPLPLOT@"] (Since the macros are substituted, they should be individually delimited by quotes - "...")
