Hi , I am very new to ubuntu and I can't get xschem installed due to tcl not found error. I've tried removing and reinstalling tcl by apt-get install. Can you help please?

 

can anyone help ?

 

My rather limited software install experience is that when a file "can not be found" it is because the operating system has modified the name or type of file. At least, that has been the problem caused by windows.
I don't know if that answer helps at all, I am not at all familiar with "UBUNTU" at all.

 

sudo apt install tcl8.6-dev

 

You may want to consider Lepton EDA, formerly gschem:

sudo apt install lepton-eda

That's great... But...

If you intend to continue to use Linux, you should try to learn basic troubleshooting techniques, so as not to have to reinstall every time something breaks.

Once you get to know it, Linux maintenance is far easier than Windows (for anything other than basic email and web surfing). Regardless what anyone says.

Oh, and Google is your friend. There's a very involved community that has solved nearly every problem you are ever going to experience.

So, installing the tcl8.6-dev library didn't work?
