This is caused by configuring tcl with '--with-encoding=utf-8'. It seems that this creates a broken tcl install which fails to read its own (internal) configuration: --with-encoding=<val> sets TCL_CFGVAL_ENCODING=<val> This is used in tclPkgConfig.c where it is passed to Tcl_RegisterConfig() which uses that encoding to decode the values in the package configuration table. However, if the encoding is not found it completely skips reading the configuration; silently. When this configuration isn't read, tcl has no idea where its library is located which causes everything to break. I have confirmed that removing the '--with-encoding=utf-8' line from tcl-8.6.0.ebuild fixes tcl on my system. Same problem. Confirmed suggested fix in comment 1 works for me. Please use tcl-8.6.0-r1. |
