It can't find the tcl library. Try the following command:
locate libtcl.so.0
and if it finds that file, add the directory in which the library
resides to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, as in:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=directory:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

If you can't find that library file it would be better to compile
Emacspeak (including the DECTALK driver) from source code.

I don't use Fedora and thus can't help with the specifics of version
numbers or library locations. Other subscribers to this list will be
in a better position to assist with such details.
