Actually, where it stands now (well, yesterday), it really has a problem
with libpgtcl. I simply specified
``load /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpgtcl.so''
instead of:
``load libpgtcl.so''
and am using the pgaccess.tcl that comes with the postgress CVSup tree,
rather than the FreeBSD package. It all seems to work fine.
Not to start a war, but; while I LOVE the look and feel and functionality
of tcl/tk applications, this mess comes as no surprise to me. So many
versions for so many pieces. Appears very fragile.
