-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
 My setup is 10.6.1, xcode 3.2
 port selfupdate
 port upgrade outdated

 The only port that was updated was tcl.

 Error: Target org.macports.install returned: couldn't read file
 "/opt/local/lib/tcl8.5/clock.tcl": no such file or directory
 Error: Unable to open port: Can't find a usable init.tcl in the following
 directories:
     /opt/local/lib/tcl8.5 /opt/local/lib/tcl8.5 /opt/lib/tcl8.5
 /opt/local/library /opt/library /opt/tcl8.5.6/library /tcl8.5.6/library

 This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly.

 Ports now seems to be completely broken, i.e. the port command barfs forth
 stuff like

 john-evanss-imac:~ jevans$ port list
 /opt/local/bin/port: line 4: /opt/local/bin/tclsh: No such file or
 directory
 /opt/local/bin/port: line 4: exec: /opt/local/bin/tclsh: cannot execute:
 No such file or directory

 It would appear that the install didn't finish, because the "init.tcl" for
 8.5.7 referenced above is still in the build area.

 I see that there have been a few tickets for tcl/tk since tcl was updated
 on 10/2, but none that looked quite like this.  I'm new to macports, and
 don't have all that many installed, so I can probably just do a clean
 reinstall.
