But even after explicitly linking it to libtcl8.6 (which contains the Tcl_Init symbol), it fails to start without printing anything to stderr. There has been some effort to modernize the Tcl plugin, but integrating that would take more time than I currently have: https://fossil.e-lehmann.de/tclplugin/home Just out of curiosity: what are you planning to do with the Tcl plugin? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
