  • tclvfs?

    From Ralf Fassel@21:1/5 to All on Tue Apr 12 12:03:09 2022
    I'm trying to add TCLFVS to our distribution to be able to load/source
    files inside a ZIP archive.

    I run into errors trying to compile it, so I wonder wether I got the
    right TCLVFS.

    I used both the fossil clone and a tarball from https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/tclvfs, but both result in

    % ./configure
    configure: loading site script /usr/share/site/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
    checking TEA configuration... ok (TEA 3.13)
    configure: configuring vfs 1.4.2
    checking system version... Linux-5.3.18-150300.59.60-default
    configure: error: cannot find install-sh, install.sh, or shtool in tclconfig "."/tclconfig

    which is somewhat irritating that such a basic file like install.sh
    should be missing...

    Thanks for any hints.

    | Sounds like you're missing tclconfig. Many packages use it and it

    | In the directory where you unpacked tclvfs, do:

    | wget -qO- http://core.tcl.tk/tclconfig/tarball/tclconfig.tar.gz | tar xzv
    | autoconf
    | ./configure

    | I documented this procedure years ago on:
    | https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/SampleExtension

    Works like a charm.

    Thanks a lot!

    (I would extend https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/tclvfs with a hint to
    tclconfig if I just could log in... I always end up on the maintainer
    request page, wasn't there a thread lately about that?)
