Package: code-aster-gui
Version: 1.13.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

We plan to drop alternatives for /usr/bin/wish from tk8.5 (only the tk package
will provide symlink /usr/bin/wish) before jessie release.

In your code-aster-gui package two scripts call /usr/bin/wish:
/usr/bin/astk and /usr/bin/bsf, so they will stop working after the change in
tk8.5.

I see two ways of fixing this:
either replace /usr/bin/wish by /usr/bin/wish8.5 and use tk8.5 in dependencies,
or retain /usr/bin/wish and use simple tk in tependencies.

In the latter case, please, test you script using tk package from experimental,
as it pulls tk8.6 package as a default (8.6 as a default is planned for jessie
too).
