Yes, but that didn't seem to help (but I wasn't sure what to set
ITCL_LIBRARY too). And (I say this dumbly) since I installed from an RPM,
I didn't understand the message -- itcl was installed incorrectly? I also
tried setting auto_path, but no joy.

I found my rpm on rpmfind -- it's the "rawhide i386 rpm"
http://www.rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/rawhide/1.0/i386/RedHat/RPMS/itcl-3.2.1-81.i386.html
So where can I find the RedHat rpm for 8.0?
Thanks,
