+<itemizedlist>
+<listitem><para><userinput>--with-tcl=/tools/lib</userinput>: This ensures that
+the configure script finds the Tcl installation in our temporary tools location.
+We don't want it to find an existing one that may possibly reside on the host
+system.</para></listitem>
+
+<listitem><para><userinput>--with-x=no</userinput>: This tells the configure
+script not to search for Tk (the Tcl GUI component) or the X Window System
+libraries, both of which may possibly reside on the host system.</para></listitem>

+
+<para>This package has a test suite available which can perform a number of
+checks to ensure it built correctly. However, the Expect test suite here in
+Chapter 5 is known to experience failures under certain host conditions that
+are not fully understood. Therefore, test suite failures here are not
+surprising, but are not considered critical. Should you choose to run the test
+suite, the following command will do so:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>make test</userinput></screen>
+
+<para>And install:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>make SCRIPTS="" install</userinput></screen>
+
+<para>The meaning of the make option:</para>
+
+<itemizedlist>
+<listitem><para><userinput>SCRIPTS=""</userinput>: This prevents installation of
+the supplementary expect scripts which are not needed.</para></listitem>
+</itemizedlist>
+
+<para>You can now remove the source directories of both Tcl and Expect.</para>
