Insight / tk/tcl error in arch " insight gui for gdb doesn't work"

Question

I just compiled insight package on arch linux perfectly and when i try to run the software, i get the following error.
1. i get the same error while using tk8.4 and tcl8.4
2. then i upgraded to tk8.6 and tcl8.6 using pacman, and i still get the same error, even if i correctly set TK/TCL_LIBRARY paths.
why do i always get these errors.
somebody on #archlinux told me that there is an error in xorg and tk , but i don't know what. can anybody help.

This probably means that tk wasn't installed properly.
