## Notes

### Linux Mint users

On Linux Mint (may be the same on other Ubuntu derivatives), installing libtcl8.6-dev and libtk8.6-dev may not be enough. Why ? Because the libraries are installed inside the folder `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu` and not just `/usr/lib`.

So you can run these commands, before calling dub on your project

```bash
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcl8.6.a /usr/lib/libtcl.a
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtk8.6.a /usr/lib/libtk.a
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcl8.6.so /usr/lib/libtcl.so
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtk8.6.so /usr/lib/libtk.so
```
