This is the same as bug 22187 (raised in redhat 7.0) The solution is still the same: Rebuild it rpm --rebuild /net/zzz/SRPMS/tcltk-8.3.1-53.src.rpm and replace it: rpm -ivh --replacefiles --replacepkgs /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/tcl-8.3.1-53.rpm I guess the Additional comments from max 2001-03-08 11:45:19 (bug 22187) is still valid. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2 i686) Description of problem: The fconfigure command is not accepting the -mode option. It reports that the option isn't supported. This is used to setup serial line parameters in tcl scripts. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: This code from gpsman package: proc OpenSerialFailed {baud} { # open serial port at given baud rate, and log file if needs be # return 1 on failure global MESS SRLFILE SERIALPORT InBuff Polling Eof tcl_platform \ NotLogging LogFile SERIALLOG if { [catch "set SRLFILE [open $SERIALPORT r+]"] } { GMMessage [format $MESS(badserial) $SERIALPORT] return 1 } switch $tcl_platform(platform) { unix { set Polling 0 ; set InBuff "" fconfigure $SRLFILE -blocking 0 -mode $baud,n,8,1 \ -translation binary fileevent $SRLFILE readable ReadChar } windows { # Tcl/Tk 8.0p2 does not support I/O from/to serial ports set Polling 1 ; set InBuff "" fconfigure $SRLFILE -blocking 0 -mode $baud,n,8,1 \ -translation binary after 0 ReadChar } default { GMMessage $MESS(badplatform) return 1 } } set Eof 0 if {! $NotLogging && "$LogFile" == "" } { set LogFile [open $SERIALLOG w] } return 0 } Additional info: My understanding is that there is a unix capabilities option to compile tcl that isn't set. I read on a newsgroup that this is fixed in Mandrake's tcltk package.
