>Description:
	The tcl-scotty package presently fails to install with

libtool  --mode=link cc -L/usr/lib -Wl,-R/usr/lib -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib -Wl,-R -o scotty scotty.o -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib -L/usr/pkg/lib -ltcl84 -lrpcsvc   -lpthread -lm  -lm
libtool: link: you must specify an output file
Try `libtool --help --mode=link' for more information.
*** Error code 1

	Note the "empty" "-Wl,-R" specification which most probably
	ends up "eating" the output file specification.

	The reason is that the tcl-scotty configure script misuses the
	TCL_LD_SEARCH_FLAGS setting in tclConfig.sh, like this:

. $tnm_cv_path_tcl_config/tclConfig.sh
SHLIB_CFLAGS=$TCL_SHLIB_CFLAGS
SHLIB_LD=$TCL_SHLIB_LD
SHLIB_SUFFIX=$TCL_SHLIB_SUFFIX
DL_LIBS=$TCL_DL_LIBS
LD_FLAGS=$TCL_LD_FLAGS
LD_SEARCH_FLAGS=$TCL_LD_SEARCH_FLAGS
TCL_INCLUDES=-I$TCL_PREFIX/include

	My tclConfig.sh says quite clearly:

# Flags to pass to ld, such as "-R /usr/local/tcl/lib", that tell the
# run-time dynamic linker where to look for shared libraries such as
# libtcl.so.  Used when linking applications.  Only works if there
# is a variable "LIB_RUNTIME_DIR" defined in the Makefile.
TCL_CC_SEARCH_FLAGS="-Wl,-rpath,${LIB_RUNTIME_DIR}"
TCL_LD_SEARCH_FLAGS="-Wl,-R${LIB_RUNTIME_DIR}"

	and LIB_RUNTIME_DIR is not defined at that point, so Makefile
	ends up with just "-Wl,-R" as LD_SEARCH_FLAGS, which gets
	passed to the link line, and results in the error above.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Inspect as above.

>Fix:
	Ensure LIB_RUNTIME_DIR is set to something sensible (what?)
	before sourcing tclConfig.sh?
