newbie: ActiveTcl libs conflict?

I have recently installed ActiveTcl on my Linux box. I downloaded it into
/usr/local/src, ran install and the ActiveTcl directory is now
/usr/local/ActiveTcl and its libs are now obviously in
/usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib. However, due to previous package dependencies
tcl/tk libraries had already been installed at /usr/lib/tcl8.4. The tcl
variable "auto_path" is /usr/lib/tcl8.4 /usr/lib and /usr/lib/tk8.4.

I am running Tcl/Tk via tkcon, but am unable to get "package require" to
find any of the ActiveTcl libraries, such as snack2.2 (even after a "lappend
auto_path" to the correct directory) . I obviously do not
have my environment set up correctly. How can I force all future tcl/tk work
to the correct libraries? Any assistance on how to do this would be greatly
appreciated.
