This is due to broken Tcl/Tk-package, and then Iwidgets don't work.
Solution: try to replace the call to "wish" in file pwgui to
"itkwish". If that doesn't help, install the ActiveTcl, which is works
well: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Tcl

Alternatively: use the binary linux-x86 package instead of source
package.
