Description of problem:
When trying to include the shared object, tclx, in wish, one is met with this error:
couldn't load file "/usr/lib/tclX8.3/../libtclx8.3.so":
/usr/lib/tclX8.3/../libtclx8.3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start wish: $ wish
2. enter command: % package require Tclx
3. observe error

Actual Results:  couldn't load file "/usr/lib/tclX8.3/../libtclx8.3.so":
/usr/lib/tclX8.3/../libtclx8.3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory

Expected Results:  libtclx.so should have been loaded silently. libtclx8.3.so
does not exist.

Additional info:

Creating a link libtclx8.3.so in /usr/lib that points to libtclx.so resolves the
problem, allowing wish to load the Tclx object.
