Description Jack 2007-06-19 22:51:43 UTC 
ppracer fails because it can't find libtcl8.4.so, and a rebuild does not help.  In /usr/lib libtcl.so is a symlink to libtcl8.4.so, which does not exist.  libtcl8.4g.so does exist.  (libtk has the same issues)

Looking in the Makefile after doing an "ebuild compile" on tcl, I find the lines
  # Libraries built with optimization switches have this additional extension
  TCL_DBGX		= g

I do have -O2 in my CFLAGS.

It looks like the ebuild creates the symlink from libtcl.so the the actual library with the version number, but apparently doesn't account for the "g".
