Re: Pltcl kills postmaster...

A better understanding of the packages collection might help me. I commented out the line in the Makefile that says --without-tcl thinking that was what I needed to do to get pltcl to work. All it did was break it.

I ran 'make update' in the tcl package directory, and noticed that it installed postgresql-pltcl as well as tcl and tk. This fixed my problem.

I still don't know exactly why that broke it, but it's all better now.

Thanks!
