I have built many times on RedHat 7.x, 8.0, 9.0, and Fedora Core 1
with no errors like this.  At this point, I need more specific
information.  Please send me the following information:

1) the name of the user you are trying to install McIDAS under:

<login>
% id

2) the read/write permissions of all files and directories in
   the HOME directory of the user you are trying to install McIDAS
   as:

% cd ~
% ls -alt

3) the Unix environment variables you have in effect when you try
   to build McIDAS:

% env

4) the version numbers of your gcc and g77 compilers:

% gcc --version
% g77 --version

The times I have seen problems in the Tcl/Tk portion of the build
have usually been due to inconsistent environment variable settings,
or cases where a build failed and the installer reset one or
more environment variables and did not do a 'make clobber' before
trying to start a new build.

Cheers,

Tom
