Mauro, It is not clear to me why you needed to recompile everything else just because you downgraded perl/Tk. (If the problem is failed dependencies in the .deb files, perhaps Carlo could be persuaded to set the dependencies such that 800.024 is acceptable -- which it is).
After that I decided to recompile everything... bad idea! ifeffit-1.2.5 recompiled fine (no errors appeared in the configure/make/make install process).
*BUT* when I try to recompile horae-034 it crash on determining ifeffit version. In fact, if I run "ifeffit -i" it gives me:
Segmentation fault (Killed, on another machine)
Problems like this usually all lall in the same category -- version conflict. Use commands like "which", "whereis" and "locate" to try to figure out if you have multiple versions either of the ifeffit executable or the ifeffit library. My guess is that the new executable is trying to dynamically link to an old library, or vice versa.
