Why are they not symlinked as such?
They normally aren't - tcl and tk don't install them and the current version doesn't have those links. Whenever I've installed Tcl/Tk I haven't put them in. My only concern is that of removing the old version. I know I have dependencies on it. OK, it wouldn't be much work to change things, the problem is that the scripts are nfs mounted and shared with Solaris 10 machines which have the old version. Do we have a one release overlap policy? (I do realise that changing to having the generic symlinks would be a partial solution to that problem next time around.) -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/
