Please have a look at your mail formatting, I'm missing most new lines
and it makes it hard to read your mail.

You would need staticdev-pkgs in your EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES to have the
static libraries of your packages on your system.
https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#ref-features-image

Or if you want only that specific static library, you can add
tcl-staticdev to your IMAGE_INSTALL.

How did I know?

Yocto splits the files between packages and you can see where goes what
by having a look at where the file is in ${WORKDIR}/packages-split. Here
it's in tcl-staticdev.
