HI !!
I have just installed ActiveTcl8.4.7.0-linux-ix86 and am now trying to install expect-5.42 but when I run ./configure I get :-
"configure: warning: Can't find Tcl configuration definitions" followed by :-
"./configure: line 1106: #: No such file or directory" I guess I need a link - but from what to what ???
Has anyone got Expect working on fedora 2 ??
Thanks

Found the answer - yum - great utility !!!!!
Hello Paul,
I am glad to read thru your posted, question and solution found (by your self).
I am new to Linux (with some little exprience), I installed Fedora 3. And now I am try to learn TCL and Expect.
Would you please share with me on:
where to download the expect?
I check my PC I see that there is tcl8.4.7 is installed (this version would be fine, I might not need to 8.4.9, unless I have to)
[rpm -qa | grep tcl]
But [rpm -qa |grep expect]
Found nothing.
Can you share with me on how to install the Expect.
The Linux / TCL / Expect have make a very complicated and lots of difficulties for user to install. Of course the Linux guru would have no problem, but, as many user, before becoming guru they have been a noviced.
I hope that you can point me out and share with me.
Thanks,

Hi timolthy_keithy and welcome,
I don't think paultazzyman will mind if I point you in the right direction. Yum is a package management utility that will install apps and take care of dependencies for you. Open a terminal, and as root go:
yum update [enter]
This may take a while...
After yum updates itself, go:
yum install nameofpackge [enter]
And it should take care of it.
Apt-get RPM is also another great utility for installing packages. I hope this helps.
