no_auto_trans is an integer defined in libecpg.so taht's right. It is
included as external reference into the *.c files by ecpg via ecpglib.h.

So I guess you have your *.pgc files correctly in the lib but the reference
to libecpg isn't fulfilled.

libcrypt should only depend on libc.so.6 aka glibc2 and ld-linux.so.2.

Since I don't know tcl I'm at a loss here.
