I am wondering whether anyone knows of an original style tclkit 8.5.x
(that is, containing metakit, itcl, etc.) built for SPARC Solaris 8?

The tclkit on equi4 is, I suspect, built against solaris 10, and so
needs libraries I don't have available.

I've not been able to build tclkit for some time, due to a variety of
issues that I've been unsuccessful in resolving. kbskit doesn't work
because it is missing pieces.

I'm just trying to run a variety of starkits.

Who would have thought starkits would be so hard to run?

I have a kitgen tree that builds on solaris 10 - I imagine it will
build on solaris 8 as well. If you like I can tar up the tree and let
you have it. All I do is:

sh config.sh 8.5/solaris-sparc thread mk cli gui
cd 8.5/solaris-sparc
env CC=gcc MAKE=gmake gmake

I end up with a tclkit and a tclkitsh that are just like the old ones
(incr-Tcl and mk4tcl based) and also a tclkit-cli/tclkit-gui pair that
dont have Itcl and dont link to C++. However on solaris 10 sparc the
tclkit-cli and -gui dont work at the moment. So I stick with the
'tclkit' executable.

My tree is the svn head of kitgen with tcl and tk checkouts of
core-8-5-3 under an 8.5 subdirectory and cvs or svn heads of itcl,
metakit, thread, tclvfs, vqtcl and zlib under 8.x. This is as
described in previous mails (usually about doing this on windows)

Thanks - if I can get this, I will try yet again to build a version.
