--- Comment #4 from Reinhard Max
We do have a workaround, as the situation was somewhat critical for us. However it is rather adventurous: 1. Install 11.2 without tcl / tk. 2. Add the reposatory DVD 10.3 3. Then install tcl / tk and blt from the above. This works.
Yes, that should be OK, since Tcl and Tk only depend on libc and the X libraries, which have a stable API and usually make sure that the ABI is backwards compatible.
Does anybody have a BLT Tarball that I could have?
Not sure what you mean. The tarball of version 2.4z is included in the respective source RPM and can also be downloaded from http://blt.sourceforge.net/ . But as BLT uses internals of Tcl and Tk that have changed between 8.4 and 8.5, it might not be easy to fix. There is also a CVS repository on SourceForge to which the author of BLT commits from time to time, but last time I tried it, it was still broken with Tcl 8.5: http://blt.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/blt/blt/ -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
