Dependencies in SRPM

Hi there,

I think you are missing some dependencies in the spec
file in the SRPM.

I got this error:
libini_tcl.c:281:17: tcl.h: No such file or directory

This suggests that BuildRequires is missing some stuff,
eg tcl dependency and possible SWIG.
Probably you're missing Requires sections as well, ie
for tcl, etc.

Also, you've got some user-specific file locations in
the spec file, /home/swhite/build, etc.

For increased portability, I suggest you use the RPM
"%makeinstall" macro instead of the method you've used
(ie "make DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT install")

Thanks for all the work you've done on this though.
