Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2006-03-21 20:03:11 UTC
I don't have a fc5 box handy at the moment, but:

maxima-gui includes:
Requires: tk
And the tk pkg is *supposed* to include /usr/bin/wish.

So, questions:
1.  Do you have the tk rpm installed?
$ rpm -q tk
2.  Do you have /usr/bin/wish on your system?
$ rpm -q -f /usr/bin/wish
3.  If yes to 1/2, why isn't the xmaxima script finding/using /usr/bin/wish?

Comment 2 Eric Tanguy 2006-03-21 21:40:25 UTC
I have to install tk manually and now all work fine.
Don't know why tk was not installed if it is required by maxima-gui.

Comment 3 Rex Dieter 2006-03-22 19:12:22 UTC
Let's consider this a fluke then.  We can revisit the issue if/when any
duplicate/similar reports come in.
