Thanks for the report but you're slightly wrong in the diagnostic :) sqlite3-tcl is built against tcl-8.5. The real problem is that sqlite3-tcl requires a tcl interpreter with threads support. Tcl 8.5 threads support is disabled by default (upstream's decision, not ours). I made this patch for you but we can't commit it because this type of change could to break old tcl packages. diff --git Makefile Makefile index a2722f0..8eec3d1 100644 --- Makefile +++ Makefile @@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ MAINTAINER = Stuart Cassoff <s...@users.sourceforge.net> # BSD PERMIT_PACKAGE_CDROM = Yes -WANTLIB = c m +WANTLIB = c m pthread MASTER_SITES = ${MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE:=tcl/} DISTFILES = ${DISTNAME}-src.tar.gz @@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ CONFIGURE_ARGS += ${CONFIGURE_SHARED} \ --mandir="${PREFIX}/lib/tcl/tcl8.5/man" \ --sysconfdir="${SYSCONFDIR}" \ --enable-man-symlinks \ + --enable-threads \ --disable-rpath \ EXTRA_INSTALL="install-private-headers" \ SHLIB_VERSION="${LIBtcl85_VERSION}"
