[Paraview] Newbie question

I'll apologize for this one in advance. I had run the precompiled binary 
for long enough I decided to try to compile a local version. Everything 
'seemed' to go just fine. However, after installation I get the 
following error when I try to execute the newly compiled paraview:

hermes:~> paraview
ParaView error: InitializeTcl failed
Tcl_Init error: Can't find a usable init.tcl in the following directories:
    /usr/local/lib/tcl8.4 /home/lib/tcl8.4 /lib/tcl8.4 /home/library 
/library /tcl8.4.5/library /usr/local/lib/tcl8.4

Sure enough none of the directories listed exist on this machine. 
However, the init.tcl file exists in almost a dozen other locations on 
the box. I'm sure this is an easy one. If someone would give me a (kind) 
pointer I would greatly appreciate it. (some cmake option?)

thanks!
