Hi,
Elmer needs compilation for versions 8.5 of Tcl/Tk libraries or older and so computers having versions 8.6 need to make sure that the older versions are utilized for the path of Elmer.
Yes, Elmer post could not be installed even with the Tcl/Tk adaptation to version 8.4 in my context and so i left it in the compilation script.
in ltcl, the first l is an abbreviation of library in my guess.
Please have a try for compilation there.

Hi,
These threads (thread 1 and thread 2), started by Stevemi, discuss about the installation issue for Elmer in Ubuntu 14.10 using Cmake and come up with the conclusion related to "Tetgen functionality".
