Well in the meanwhile I finished my compilation (the binaries may be a slightly more user and time-friendly route).

My conclusions:

It seems that Tcl/Tk 8.6 they removed the result method from 'Tcl_Interp' which gets accessed quite a lot and makes it fail. The readme says it supports tcl >= 8.4 so practically this means you have to use 8.4 or 8.5 .

Also, I think when our HPC team installed it they disabled Bwidget, I currently didn't and see that the text sometimes seems a bit (vertically) misaligned.

Correction: xcConfigure.sh should be in the scripts folder not the bin folder.

I had xcrysden-1.5.53-linux_x86_64-semishared.tar.gz installed on a ubuntu 64 bit 14.04 LTS system. I just downloaded xcrysden-1.5.60-linux_x86_64-semishared.tar.gz from the xcrysden website, extracted it with "tar xvf xcrysden-1.5.60-linux_x86_64-semishared.tar.gz", removed the xcrysden block in .bashrc for 1.5.53, ran xcConfigure.sh in the bin folder of the xcrysden installation to create a new xcrysden block for 1.5.60 in .bashrc, reloaded the new .bashrc settings (by closing terminal and opening a new one), and finally I ran xcrysden. It opens fine without any errors, but maybe I have to do other things to encounter the problems that you refer to.

Has anyone worked through a .configure (or similar) script for Xcrygen. The shared & semishared versions on the web page are not that compatible with recent systems, and I hate (am too lazy) to start editing makefiles by hand.
