Description Jean Jordaan 2002-05-22 08:39:52 UTC
'./configure' on a package using tcl was choking on a literal (i.e.
unsubstituted) 
"libtcl8.3${TCL_DBGX}.so" until I made this change:

Is that something that could be fixed by the ebuild during installation?

I'll look into it and see if it doesn't break anything else.

Fixed now. I hope this doesn't prove to be a nasty "blows up in your face later"
kinda problem.
