I have the same problem as Rod. I downloaded all three tar files for linux ( 
redhat 5.0) just yesterday, and running Setup will eventually give:

Locating Perl 5...
Perl 5 found [at /usr/bin/perl]
Please wait...
Configuring PilotManager...
	You do not have the correct binary of the Tk module
	installed in either your PilotManager distribution or your
	perl distribution.

	Please read README.porting for information about how to 
	download and install this module.

Thanks. --martin
