Bugzilla Bug 173467

New development release of Tcl/Tk add support for nice features.
It should be added to portage to allow testing it and to use aMsn with
anti-aliased fonts. ;-)

Reproducible: Always

Created an attachment (id=115507) [edit]
Tcl 8.5a5 ebuild

Created an attachment (id=115508) [edit]
tk 8.5a5 ebuild

Save attached ebuild in 
- dev-lang/tcl/tcl-8.5_pre5.ebuild
- dev-lang/tk/tk-8.5_pre5.ebuild

To add anti-aliased font support, add "xft" use flag in
/etc/portage/package.use for the "dev-lang/tk" package.

Using this version for aMsn work very well but dev-tcltk/tls need to be patched
to be detected by aMsn. Look at bug #173542.

I also think that it should be added and marked as HardMasked for testing ;-)

Thanks a lot :-)

is it supported on amd64 system?

I saw "KEYWORDS="x86"" in ebuild.

Thanks a lot.
Evan

8.5a6 in cvs.

with package.mask

Why "xft" has been dropped from tk?

Thanks for information :-)

Reopening this bug as there's loads of packages that fail with Tcl/Tk 8.5;
unmasking this thing hasn't been one of the best ideas around...

*** Bug 206811 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

sorry. MATSUU IS TOO STUPID.

remasked now.

Created an attachment (id=145588) [edit]
list of apps w/ tcl and/or tk deps for testing

Looks like the list got somehow partially duplicated when pasting on the above
comments, so here's one as attachment instead.

dev-lang/ocaml fixed (didnt fail but didnt build tk support)
dev-ml/lablgl fixed
dev-lang/caml-light deserves a last rite due to bug #206138

Hello, good day, i have recompiled successfully the following packages that use
tcl and/or tk:
=app-mobilephone/obexftp-0.22_rc9
=app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.5.3-r1
=dev-db/postgresql-8.2.6
=dev-db/sqlite-3.5.6
=dev-db/sqlite-2.8.16-r4
=net-irc/xchat-2.8.4-r3
=media-libs/pdflib-7.0.2_p8
=sys-libs/db-4.3.29-r2
=sys-libs/db-4.2.52_p4-r2
=sys-libs/db-4.5.20_p2
=net-im/pidgin-2.4.0
=dev-java/bsf-2.4.0-r1
=dev-lang/swig-1.3.34
=sys-fs/hfsutils-3.2.6-r5
=net-analyzer/rrdtool-1.2.27
=dev-tcltk/tls-1.5.0-r1
=app-text/gocr-0.45
=media-gfx/graphviz-2.16.1-r3
=net-im/pidgin-2.4.0
=dev-lang/python-2.5.1-r5
=dev-lang/ruby-1.8.6_p114
=dev-lang/erlang-12.2.1
=dev-lang/swig-1.3.34
=dev-lisp/gcl-2.6.7-r3
=dev-util/git-1.5.4.3
=dev-python/pyopengl-3.0.0_beta1
=dev-python/imaging-1.1.6
=sys-fs/hfsutils-3.2.6-r5
=media-sound/timidity++-2.13.2-r6

The package =media-gfx/graphviz-2.16.1-r3 send me an error about that autoconf
could not be run, so i don't know if it actually can be compiled without errors
with tcl/tk, but the other ones compiled.

(In reply to comment #15)
> app-text/catdoc - tex 
> app-text/gocr - tex 

both fine

> sci-libs/vtk - markusle/java,sci (Bug 212700)

patched and should work now.

> sci-mathematics/scilab - sci-mathematics

builds fine as is.

Thanks,
Markus

app-accessibility/brltty builds as is.

Thanks,

William

net-im/kadu-0.4.3 will be removed from the tree as soon as i bump it to 0.6.0

Cheers,
Dawid

> sci-visualization/paraview
> sci-chemistry/namd

These seem to be fine!

Best,
Markus

dev-lang/gnu-smalltalk works perfectly fine.

So, feel free to remove it from the list.

dev-lang/R
sci-mathematics/maxima

build fine as is.

(In reply to comment #14)
> It does not seem to be able to build otcl?

Can't fix ns/nam without otcl, hence I'll wait for bug #213028

The following are ok:

dev-lang/mercury-extras
dev-lang/mozart
dev-lang/yap

(In reply to comment #13)
> sci-electronics/lard - sci-electronics

Masked for removal in 30 days. See bug #172356.

Denis.

dev-tcltk/tclx works fine

sci-electronics/gnetman OK

sci-electronics/pcb OK

sci-electronics/xcircuit not OK, see bug #213852

sci-electronics/magic not OK, same symptoms as xcircuit (same author) and
blocked by bug #212711.

Denis.

www-apache/mod_tcl is fine

setools all set.

Actually dev-ada/tash has =dev-lang/tcl-8.4* (same for tk) in DEPEND, this
should not have even be mentioned here. Also, this is a low profile package, so
I'd rather do proper bumping/testing when new version of tash is released.

app-emulation/systemsim-cell now depends on =tcl/tk-8.4*. I've asked upstrem if
they could release a version for 8.5, but they did not yet respond.

app-mobile/obexftp should be ok.

kerberos do no longer depend on tcl.

ClusterSSH does not work with 8.5!

app-text/namazu should be ok.

Do we have any updates on that? Are these packages going to be marked as ~arch
soon ?

This bug being more than one year old, I'd be inclined to unmask {tcl,tk}-8.5
so it can get wider testing and eventually stabilized.

@Matsuu, mescalinum, what do you think?

dejagnu seems fine

dev-tcltk/mysqltcl-3.02 compiles fines and gets loaded on "package require". No
function test made, though

I've checked all packages mentioned here and opened new bugs for those that are
broken with blocker on this bug. So I don't see any need for herds to be CC'ed
here anymore. But, please, unCC yourself since I don't know why you are here.

Below is summary of my semi-manual tests:

Packages that force 8.4:
dev-libs/newt
media-sound/rat
sci-chemistry/gopenmol
sci-chemistry/sparky

Removed or pending remove (package.mased):
dev-lang/entity in package.mask: # Abandonware. Masked for removal.
dev-tcltk/Tk_Theme Macked for removal, bug 177912
media-sound/waif Treecleaner bug filed: bug 249244
dev-tcltk/tclgpgme Masked for removal (31 Aug 2008)
net-im/ccmsn - already removed
dev-lisp/gcl-cvs - already removed

Don't depend on tcl/tk now:
app-pda/pilot-link comment inside ebuild: # tcl/tk support is disabled as per
upstream request.
net-dialup/isdn4k-utils Doesn't use tcl? bug 249311
dev-libs/redland-bindings-1.0.8.1 does now have tcl binding any more...
dev-libs/xapian-bindings Build pass but bindings are not installed bug 247228

tcltk herd, now it's up to you how to proceed from this point. Obviously
blockers should be resolved somehow and itcl seems to be most important since
other packages depend on it. And now you have clear plan, what to do further :)
