There are many ports that require version 8.2.3, and the annoying thing is that the higher version is not recognized so it attempts to install the older versions of Tcl/Tk. Is there any way to avoid this? People have said that both versions will happily coexist, but that isn't a solution. If coexistence is the only option, what version will /usr/local/bin/wish & /usr/local/bin/tclsh belong to if 8.3.1 is installed first and 8.2.3 after? We use "XFREE86_VERSION=4" in /etc/make.conf to provide the same facility for XFree86. If I have some time later I'll try to see if a TCL equivalent can be hacked together. thanks all -- Steve Tremblett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
