[Magic-dev] Magic runtime problem

Hi Guys,

I have managed to compile and install magic 7.4 on our clusters.  
However, when I run magic, I get the following error message in the 
pop-up tkcon 2.3 Main window:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
error in slave eval:
couldn't load file "/usr/lib/tk8.4/../libtk8.4.so": 
/usr/lib/tk8.4/../libtk8.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such 
file or directory
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have checked our machines and found where the .so files are, they are 
located in:

/usr/lib rather than /usr/lib/tk8.4/...  so obviously could not be found

Do I have to compile magic inserting this directory path somewhere or is 
this a tcl/tk issue?  I am new to linux so any help is greatly 
appreciated.  Thanks you in advance for your time.

Regards,
David
