I'm trying to build tclx (8.4) on opensuse 10.2 and get the following
config error:

checking system version (for dynamic loading)... ./configure: line
13965: syntax error near unexpected token `ac_space=' ''
../configure: line 13965: ` case `(ac_space=' '; set | grep ac_space)
2>&1` in'

I am NOT a "configure" expert - Does anyone know how to fix this?

PS. I just went back and checked - and the build has not worked on any
Suse 10.X release. Last working build I have is Suse 9 and tclx 8.3 :-(

you may want to use or have a look into the opensuse src package.
( afair there is heavy patching done to the configure file.)

What about other source packages - are you able to build them? The
reason I ask is that this sounds familiar. Perhaps google for the
error message and see if this is related to like a bad set of
autoconfig macros or something...

This is a known bug (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?
func=detail&aid=1426906&group_id=13247&atid=313247)- I am told it is
fixed in CVS.

In any case, there is a simple workaround: see

tcl, tk, thread, itcl - all configure and build without problems.
