recently there was a thread concerning installation problems
with scotty2.1.5 on HP-UX 10.20 - but I haven't seen an answer which
can solve my problem.

Here it goes:
I'm using HP-UX 10.20, cc, TCL 7.6 and TK 4.2.
I compiled scotty only with minor warnings (concerning pointer assign-
ments) and when doing a "make install":
hw1245:root# make install
Installing scotty2.1.5 and tnm2.1.5.sl
Installing ./../tnm/library/README
Installing ./../tnm/library/dialog.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/output.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/snmp.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/monitor.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/obsolete.tcl
Installing ./../tnm/library/init.tcl
initialization failed: couldn't load file "/local/lib/tnm2.1.5.sl":
unresolved symbol name
*** Error exit code 1

/local/lib/tnm2.1.5.sl exists:
hw1245:root# ls -al /local/lib/tnm2.1.5.sl
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root sys 337513 Mar 13 14:31 /local/lib/tnm2.1.5.sl
.

It's a stupid HP-UX compiler loader, I think.
I've seen the same under 10.01 and 10.1; it's
not specific to 10.20. I *think* it actually
means, "there's a symbol in /local/lib/tnm-
2.1.5.s1 that we can't resolve." It's
probably something obvious (a missing "math"
or dl or network library), once we figure out
which symbol it is. I don't know how to do
that in any elegant way.

If you wait long enough, I'll rotate back to
HP-UX, and solve it. The hack I've taken to
get me by until then was to link scotty
statically. At the time, I thought that if
I were just alert enough to what was happen-
ing, I'd notice which other libraries I
needed--but I rushed, and just made it work,
and have no coherent record of what I did.

If people are *truly* desperate for this, I
might be able to make time either Sunday
or next Tuesday. I'm sure solving it is a
finite task; I just have had more urgent ones.
