I think it's a bit silly to have a bug-reporting mailing list
which only accepts submissions from its members. don't you?
lyolik@luckynet.co.il, I've CC'ed this to you since your email address
appears in the FAQ_Linux file, so there's at least a chance that you
are on the bug-reporting mailing list, and could forward the report.

Your name : James Youngman
Your email address : jay@gnu.org

Architecture (example: Intel Pentium) : Intel Pentium
Operating System (example: Linux 2.0.26 ELF) : Linux 2.2.5
PostgreSQL version (example: PostgreSQL-6.4.2) : PostgreSQL-6.4.2
Compiler used (example: gcc 2.8.0) : Stock Red Hat 6
Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------
/usr/bin/pgaccess fails to load libpgtcl.so because that library
requires crypt(), and crypt() is no longer in libc.
Please describe a way to repeat the problem. Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Run /usr/bin/pgaccess on Red Hat 6.0. Observe the error message.
If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Apply the following patch:-

if {[string toupper $tcl_platform(platform)]=="WINDOWS"} {

} else {

load libpgtcl.so
}
catch {draw_tabs}
This patch is in unified-diff format. The patch should be appropriate
for all systems, since the extra load statement is enclosed in a
"catch", making any failure silent.
