Dear all,
 I am trying to install the binary version of XCrysDen on a computer
with OpenSuse 10.2 64bit version, and tcl/tk installed (version
8.4.14-11). I'm intending to use it with Wien2k.

I get the following message upon trying to run the program. I'm sure
that there is a simple solution, but as a relatively new user of linux,
I don't know it. Any help would be appreciated.

I ran ./xcConfigure and sourced the profile. In .bashrc:
