05:21.30 DaRock starseeker: thats alright - we're not quite done yet, as we have yet to test here. Speaking of which it hasn't resolved it. It is also an only automated option, so nothing I put in is even recognised, just completely overridden. I'm also concerned with the triple checking - I can't understand the reasoning on it... but thats me :)
05:21.46 DaRock d_rossberg: that didn't work either I'm afraid
05:23.44 DaRock I can link for termlib.h, but I think that misses the point of the exercise
05:24.15 DaRock or is it just a head fix? heh :)
05:24.24 DaRock couldn't help myself there ;)
05:26.00 DaRock if it is just a case of not following dev branch then maybe a link might fix it so we can move on, but that still doesn't allow for any user overrides (for say advanced users or porters)
05:28.29 DaRock I also can't seem to get my head around Find_Package_Handle_Standard_Args(), why it is needed, and why the last arg is such an issue - I don't get the returns from it (I believe strongly that the failure is right there myself). What is expected there?

07:10.54 DaRock ok. It works with the termlib.h link, but that implies that it will work with absolutely nothing else - I have curses, ncurses, and termcap, and apparently none of those will do the trick. They are also linked to the same header file curses.h, so why they fail... So it would appear that there is still another breakage in the cmake system
07:11.51 DaRock but while I'm here :) anyone know what the big issue is here: /usr/local/include/tk8.6/tk.h:21:3: error: Tk 8.6 must be compiled with tcl.h from Tcl 8.6 or better
07:12.34 DaRock I have no other tk version installed, and tcl.h has all the right notes in it, so what the hell?
07:12.59 DaRock and its looking in the right place - not the builtin
07:13.32 DaRock there is bugger all on google for it
07:16.31 *** join/#brlcad teepee (~teepee@unaffiliated/teepee)
07:25.45 DaRock I have a suspicion that it is somehow referencing the builtin tcl.h file when include is called from the tk.h file which is actually included correctly from the system
07:26.47 DaRock it'd be at cross purposes, and this occurs regardless of the use of all builtins as well - tried that earlier
07:27.37 DaRock my system tk.h and tcl.h both have version 8.6 in them. The builtin has 8.5
07:38.23 DaRock looking at the cmake system again seems to make absolutely no allowances for overrides or any intervention by the user - it even seems to ignore the initial assessment of whether the system libraries are suitable
07:39.25 DaRock but if the include variables are set earlier, then it insists on using the builtins, it looks as though this may cause the conflict
07:41.57 DaRock so the automated system (allow_all or not) detects the system libraries and sets them up, the cmake subsystem then tries to ignore all that which means the compiler isn't sure which to header to use from where - regardless of whether the builtins are auto or on or not
