Ah, ok. ...

So you have the 'Packages' tab open, you have clicked on the 'Add Packages' 
button (4th from the left), Tclapp has animated the progressbar (*), and
then 
the package selection dialog came up.

You are either scrolling through the very big list, or you are typing
'expect' 
in the filter edit field ... Regardless, Expect is not showing up ...
	
What is the architecture shown at the top, above the edit field ?
tcl

Have you set a basekit yet ?  No

If not, do that, then try the package selection again. Have the
architecture(s) 
shown above the edit field changed ?

After setting basekit in "Prefix File", the architectures changed to "tcl or
win32-ix86" and the expect Package now shows up. However, I am not able to
get "Expect to show up if I only specify an "Interpreter" and not a "Prefix
File".  

Can you explain?  

Thanks
