>Description:
I installed Redhat linux 7.1 (install everything option) on an IBM intellistation and then attempted to install the insight tar on the system.  I issued the ./configure and the make and the make install command.  After repairing a problem with the make file where the function to create the target direrectories was broken (reported previously today) I attempted to run it.

running gdb reported and error that it could not find the iwidgets library.  

I checked in /usr/local/lib and could not find any libraries relating to widgets, so I think there is something  broken with the install.  

I suspect that the install did not completly install all there was to install for the special version of TCL required by gdb.

I am rather anxious to get this working on Redhat 7.1 as insight is one of the better GUI's for GDB.


Please advise.
