Hi,
	I am having trouble getting the perl-tk set-up that I
installed from the Debian 1.1 distribution. It *seems* to be
a problem with the way the distribution was set up, which is
why I'm posting it it to a linux group as opposed to comp.-
lang.perl.tk.
	I can't get the basic "widget" to work, or tkweb or
even the "Hello World" script in the perlTk FAQ. Everything
exits with the message (line breaks are mine):

Can't find loadable object for module Tk in @INC (/usr/lib/perl5/i486-
linux/5.003 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/local/lib/site_perl/i486-linux
/usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/lib/perl5/Tk.pm line 35
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at hw line 4.
                                     ^^      ^
                                     These depend on which script was
                                     called, of course.

	My suspicion is that there is something a bit screwy with
the way it was set up, but I may be being unfair to the (Debian)
package maintainer. Is there an obvious fix that I can try before
uninstalling and then re-installing the whole thing (which I'd
rather avoid)?

Rob
