Hello everyone,

I'm attempting to run the Bastille Linux script version 2.04 on Red Hat
Linux 8.0 for x86. Looking at the web page, it says to download and
install the following rpm packages for the Curses version :

1. perl-Curses-1.06-4mdk.i586.rpm (actually the mandrake version, but
the table at http://www.bastille-linux.org/perl-rpm-chart.html says to
use this one).

2. Bastille-2.0.4-1.0.i386.rpm

3. Bastille-Curses-module-1.2.0-1.1mdk.noarch.rpm (also a Mandrake rpm,
but Bastille advises to use this one at http://www.bastille-
linux.org/faq4.html#ui-modules)

All of the .rpm packages above install correctly, but when I run the
bastille script, the following message appears :

WARNING: /usr/bin/perl cannot find Perl module Tk.
 The above module(s) is/are required to correctly display
         the Bastille User Interface. If you are unable to find a
         pre-compiled module for your OS, they can be found at:
           http://www.cpan.org/modules/01modules.index.html
         If you installed the modules in another installation of
         perl besides the one listed in the error message, you may
         override Bastille's search path by setting the
         $CORRECT_PERL_PATH environment variable to the directory
         that the desired perl binary is located in.

The web page does not say that the TK module is needed to run the Curses
version. Is there something else I need to do for the Curses version of
Bastille to run?

Thanks.
