Sorry for not getting back to this sooner. 

Anyway, I created a softlink, ln -s, for the Tk
directory under /usr/bin/perl, but still a no go to
get Bastille to run. 

I don't understand what you mean by -I /path/to/Tk? 

I even re-installed Tk from Webmin, and I'm not
getting any specific errors to output when doing the
install.

Anyway to capture these errors, or should there be
something that I need to be looking for? 

thanks
