You're absolutely right. I had just upgraded to 3.1 from 2.2.7 and then upgraded the ports. Since in 2.2.7 the ports only had x11 as a dir for all x11 apps, and not the multiple dirs it has now, and since upgrading didn't eliminate the other versions of the ports in other dirs, I made the mistake of using the version of tk which was in x11, which was the old 2.2.7 version. I've found something I believe to be annoying with the XFree86 port. Since some parts depend on a version (or versions) of tk, why doesn't it check for its existance? I upgraded tk8.1 and tried to reinstall X but it still gave me missing TK errors (although quite a lot less so it must have found at least some of what it was looking for). I then proceded to install tk8.0, tk4.2 and tk4.1 to be sure... It then went without a problem. Thanks for the tip, it steered me in the right direction!
