[GRASSLIST:2378] problems with nviz and the tcl/tk 8.3 libraries

[Ivan Kautter]

Hello fellow listserv members,

Thanks for everyone's help regarding install the ncurses libraries but now a 
new problem has cropped up.  I tried to run nviz and I received this error 
message:

usr/local/grass5/etc/nviz2.2/NVWISH2.2: error in loading shared libraries: 
libtk8.3.so.1: cannot open shared object file:  No such file or 
directory................

So after indeed identifying that I needed to update my tcl/tk libraries, 
with some tribulation I did so and attempted to make sure that the newly 
installed files are within my path.  Upon typing in nviz after all this, I 
still get the same error message.  Did the redhat linux precompiled binaries 
not include the most up to date tcl/tk libraries so that nviz would work?  
If so, then why not?  Can anyone tell me what I might have done wrong?  
Indeed the file I have is not named libtk8.3.so.1.  It is libtk8.3.so.  
Should that make a difference?

Again I am not very linux savvy so I might have easily done something wrong, 
like failed to configure tcl/tk or wish after installation if that is 
necessary in this case.  Any suggestions?  Thanks a bunch.
