To start with, I have no knowledge of LISP. I was assigned, however,
to install GNU Common LISP on an HP/UX 10.20 system with tcl 7.5 and
tk 4.1. The compile of gcl went without incident (save a few warnings).
Once I started gcl, I decided to use some simple tests. I added two and
three to get five. I then tried
(si::tkconnect)
to link in tk libraries. I got the following errors. Keep in mind
that I installed gcl to a base directory of /home/a1a/bugs.

I looked in the GNU documentation and found the following
<start of GNU documentation>
7) (si::tkconnect) fails:
a) Make sure DISPLAY variable set before
starting gcl.
b) gcltkaux (subsidiary process) uses shared libraries and
you would need LD_LIBRARY_PATH set on say suns, to say where those are
if they are not in default places. [make sure "wish" would work]
<end of GNU documentation>
I did the following:
1. Made sure I compiled gcl with the correct path for tclConfig.sh and
tkConfig.sh
2. Made sure the DISPLAY variable was set correctly.
3. Made sure that tkl.o was accessable.
4. Grepped through both the gcl-tk directory in the gcl distribution and
the tk4.1 directory in /usr/local/lib for init_tkl but could not find it.
I am unsure of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable. I assume they are talking
about an environment variable, but I could be mistaken.
To restate my troubles, I am having two linking errors. The first is
duplicate symbols. This does not disconcert me too much. The second
is that init_tkl is not found which kills the linking with tkl.o.
Is there any one out there that could possible help me track down the
problems I am having?
Thank you in advance.
