Hello, Currently in unstable there are around 30 packages which depend on Tcl/Tk 8.4, which is quite old itself despite the fact that updates are still released for it. Tcl/Tk 8.5 is available for more than 4 years, Tcl/Tk 8.6 is coming soon, so I think it may be the time to deprecate Tcl/Tk 8.4 finally.
I've filed bugs against some packages already, one of them already got fixed, and also I've prepared two QA uploads to orphaned packages (one of which is already uploaded, thanks, Paul!) So I'd like the maintainers of the packages which still depend on Tcl/Tk 8.4 to update their packages to build against/use newer Tcl/Tk versions. I'm going to post here a list with details on packages needing some work a bit later. -- WBR, Andrew
