Hello, 

I have a problem when I try to run SCID (typing scid or scid & from the 
terminal). I get the reply:

 /usr/local/bin/tkscid: error while loading shared libraries: libtcl8.5.so: 
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I can find this file in my system here:
 [r...@localhost scid]# whereis libtcl8.5.so
libtcl8.5: /usr/local/lib/libtcl8.5.so

This location (/usr/local/lib) contains:
total 2388
drwxr-xr-x  5 root root    4096 2009-06-22 00:02 ./
drwxr-xr-x 13 root root    4096 2009-06-21 20:32 ../

-rw-r--r--  1 root root    7496 2009-06-21 23:58 tclConfig.sh
drwxr-xr-x  6 root root    4096 2009-06-22 00:02 tk8.5/
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    4168 2009-06-22 00:02 tkConfig.sh

Please advise how I can correct this. I tried:
cd /usr/local/bin/tkscid
ln -s /usr/local/lib/libtcl8.5.so 

But I received the same errot message. I am a newbie regarding symbolic links 
and relative newcomer to linux.


Here is the output from configuring scid:

[r...@localhost scid]# ./configure BINDIR=/usr/local/bin OPTIMIZE="-O2 
-funroll-loops" LANGUAGES=""
configure: Makefile configuration program for Scid
    Renaming "Makefile" to "Makefile.bak"
    Tcl/Tk version: 8.5
    Your operating system is: Linux 2.6.29.3-desktop586-1mnb
    Location of "tcl.h": /usr/local/include
    Location of "tk.h": /usr/local/include
    Location of Tcl 8.5 library: /usr/local/lib
    Location of Tk 8.5 library: /usr/local/lib
    Location of X11 library: /usr/lib
    Checking if your system already has zlib installed: yes.
The Makefile configured for your system was written.
Now just type "make" to compile Scid.

Please advise,
thank you!
