Hi... Since tcl 8.6 access to some internal variables has been removed from the code. It was already deprecated since many years. Attached you find 2 patches replacing the deprecated stuff with the current official way. This is also backward compatible to insight's tcl 8.4 version checkin in to sourceware.org. Changelog: 2012-03-19 Roland Schwingel * generic/gdbtk.c: (gdbtk_init,tk_command): Replace deprecated access to tcl interpreter result string with Tcl_GetStringResult(). * generic/gdbtk-hooks.c (gdbtk_read,gdbtk_readline,gdbtk_load_hash) (gdbtk_query): Likewise Any comments? Is this ok? Roland
