	I'm trying to build the source code by performing a
'configure;make;make install' and during the 'make install' I get the
following error:

Installing libtcl8.1.so
ranlib: libtcl8.1.so: File format not recognized

	This is a new one on me. Any ideas?

	thanx & later,

		Ben Scherrey

PS: I'm running Intel/RedHat 6.2 with gcc-2.95.2.

You should run with --disable-shared for now. I don't think our hacked up 
tcl version deals with shared very well.

Why would ranlib be getting run on a .so file? That
is really strange. Did this really happen in the
"make install" step? Try doing a cd to the itcl/unix
directory and running make followed by make followed
by make install in there.

Thanx, that was it. By default I do 'configure --enable-shared' and
didn't even think about it.
