[Gcl-devel] gcl-2.6.10 and tcl/tk-8.6

[Andrey G. Grozin]

Hello *,

A deprecated interp->result has finally disappeared in tcl-8.6, one has to 
use Tcl_GetStringResult(interp) instead. gcl-2.6.10 (as well as all 
earlier versions) don't compile with tcl-8.6 or later. The attached patch 
to tkMain.c fixes the problem (I've already sent it to the list in March 
2013, but it is not yet included).

I've committed gcl-2.6.10 ebuild to Gentoo, largely based on the fedora 
srpm by Jerry James (thanks!). But this patch is also absent in fedora. 
Does fedora use a very old tcl?

At the moment, gcl is still masked in Gentoo. I hope to get it unmasked 
soon.

Andrey
