Hello,

This sounds like either Tcl/Tk lib/hdr package(s) are not
installed, or 
the path is not set up for it to find them.

To an experienced Linux user that is obvious.

If you're not experienced with Linux, you need to get hold
of some books.

Try a 'which tcl' , as the same user you're using to build
python/zope, 
to see if tcl is installed at all (I can't imagine it not
being, since 
Linux depends left right & centre on tcl).

Then do "sudo apt-cache search tcl" and amongst
the long list generated 
should be something like extra libraries for tcl.

Then do 'sudo aptitude install <package-name>'  - with
the package name 
from the list above.

It'll either get the packages you want, or, if it says
you've already 
got them, then you'll know its a library path issue you've
got to hunt down.

This newsgroup is meant for setup issues at the Plone level.
For help 
with Linux, the Ubuntu forums would be more friendly to
people without a 
lot of Linux experience.

Hope that helps,

Nick
