Bug#726085: tk5: depends on obsolete tk8.4/8.3
Package: tk5
Version: 0.6-6.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
We plan to remove the deprecated Tcl/Tk 8.4 from the Debian archive before
jessie release. So, I'd like to propose yoy to replace the tk8.4|tk8.3
by tk in tk5's dependencies list. Note that if you want to use tk8.5 which is
acceptable then replace wish by wish8.5 in tk5.tcl because in jessie there
will be no wish in tk8.5, the /usr/bin/wish symlint to the default windowing
shell will be shipped in the tk package only.
I've prepared a small patch which fixes the dependencies.
