I think there are a few items in play which is preventing this from working
saods9 pckage in Karmic is 4.0, and installs tcl/tk 8.4 (along with wish 8.4). Unfortunately, ds9 4.0 (And even the more recent 5.7) is written with tcl/tk 8.5. This is a false dependency. I think there are two ways to get around this: 1) Use a later version of ds9 (5.7 is current), and 2) Update the package to use tcl/tk 8.5 It appears this is packaged up with Debian, so I'm not sure where to go to get attention upstream. -- Can't open DS9 in Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/481052 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
