Need to have ical, running Debian Woody, moving to Sarge

I understand that ical is no longer supported but I have found no
other calendar program that does what I need (sync with my palm device
and print out scaled PS fonts such that I can see (if not read) all of
the daily events on a given day regardless of how many there may be)
when I pull down the source of all of the version I have been able to
locate and run configure I get the following:

ical-2.2# ./configure --with-tclconfig=/usr/lib/tcl8.3 --with-tkconfig=/usr/lib/tk8.3
loading cache ./config.cache
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking for ranlib... ranlib

checking for Mail... no
checking for mail... /usr/bin/mail

checking for tkConfig.sh... /usr/lib/tk8.3/tkConfig.sh
checking for installed Tcl/Tk library files... /usr/lib/libtcl8.3${TCL_DBGX}.so not found
configure: error: Make sure Tcl/Tk are installed correctly on your
system and then rerun configure.

To me this looks like the shell variable ${TCL_DBGX} is not being
evaluated, but I am no Tcl programmer. There is indeed a library that
(if is null) would handle this:

ical-2.2# ls -l /usr/lib/libtcl8.3*.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Sep 19 23:24 /usr/lib/libtcl8.3.so -> libtcl8.3.so.1

If anyone can save me from cracking open the Tcl text book or
recommend another calendar program that will talk to my palm and give
me a monthly printout that auto scales the fonts on a daily basis I
would be _extremely_ grateful.

Regards,
Chuck
