Unless you installed it from source, the install process automatically performed a "port selfupdate", which would have updated your ports tree to tcl @8.6.0. The next time you ran "port upgrade outdated" or something similar, MacPorts would have deactivated tcl @8.5.13 (or whatever your old version was) and installed tcl @8.6.0. So, unless you at no point ran a "port upgrade", nothing magical is happening; this is intended behavior. > It did not, however, remove wish8.5.

Is wish8.5 part of tk? What version of the tk port do you have activated? vq _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
