I want to add my support to two of Mike's comments in particular. I suggest you do not do anything with the CCD files and limit your work to the move of expect to SFW. As soon as this is available to me, I will do the remove of expect from the CCD. Tclx in the CCD also depends on having the tcl/tk source available and will be redone once the tcl/tk source is in the SFW somewhere.
And, rather than use the ccd tarball, check out the files from the CDD svn repository. The tarball is older and will be updated when a new build for NV 72 or higher can be done. Steve C.
