[vtkusers] vtkLogo.tcl: can't find packages Tk, vtkinteraction [followup]

[George Brower]

Myt auto_path and two questions my original post should have included:

1. My auto_path is:

tcl>puts $auto_path
/usr/lib/tcl8.3/vtk/vtkinteraction:/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/OpenGL/Tk /usr/share/tcltk/tcl8.3 /usr/lib /usr/local/lib/tcltk /usr/local/share/tcltk /usr/lib/tcltk /usr/share/tcltk /usr/lib/tclX8.3
tcl>

The first two items are from
TCLLIBPATH="/usr/lib/tcl8.3/vtk/vtkinteraction:/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/OpenGL/Tk", which I added to /etc/environment, but the rest was automatic.

2. Two questions:

	A. Why did vtk (or tcl?) choose tcl8.3, as the automatic part of
		my auto_path indicated even before I added TCLLIBPATH, 
		rather than tcl8.4, which I believe Python 2.5 uses?

	B. Python packages are marked by __init__py files; how are tcl 
		packages marked?

I hope this is the right way to extend a thread, as I haven't used
pipermail before and couldn't find a reply button. Protocol help would
also be welcome! 

Sorry for any confusion due to newbie errors, and thanks again.

George
