Bugzilla Bug 58730

Should I downgrade or something? I'm a bit wary of up or downgrading tcl, as I
heard a lot about incompatibilities between versions for tcl.

I'm currently trying to duplicate your problem on two separate systems and am
unable to thus far.

which version of tcl/tk do you currently have on yours system? Which version of
tk do you have?

I'm assuming 8.4.6.

If you've got any additional information, it'd be very handy.

Experimental Tclx 8.3.5 ebuild

I found a slightly newer tclx and changed it to compile against the latest
current versions of tcl and tk as well as corrected the homepage for the
package.

Try this ebuild... I didn't have to unmerge my old tclx install to get this one
to work. So maybe a version upgrade will kill two birds with one stone.

Let me know how this ebuild works for you.

Created an attachment (id=36920) [details]
New tclx 8.3.5 ebuild with fixes for bug 46565.

Includes clean up of warning that's no longer needed.

Ebuild is now in Portage. Reopen the bug if the problem persists.

When trying to upgrade the tclx lib get the following.

Error: version conflict for package "Tcl": have 8.4, need 8.3
    (while initializing TclX)
    while

tcl 8.4.6 is installed, and was put there when the system did a world update.

emerge tclx tcl -vp

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Jon,

Please try to unmerge tclx and then re-emerge it again and let me know how that works.

unemerge then re-emerge seems to work.

Its now not complaining about version issues.

Thanks

seems to work after the unemerge then re-emerge.

Thanks

Fixed.
