[Pkg-tcltk-devel] Bug#451195: tk8.4: Needs updated shlibs file

[Dirk Eddelbuettel]

Package: tk8.4
Version: 8.4.16-2
Severity: important

Version 8.4.16-2 fixed a serious bug regarding the search path. However,
packages built against tk8.4-dev still only get 

	tk8.4 (>= 8.4.5)

whereas we would need 

	tk8.4 (>= 8.4.16-2)

Could you please make that change?   For an example of where this matters,
please see #451152 where R fails to load its tcl/tk extension.  I cannot fix
this until you fix tk8.4-dev.

Thanks!!

Dirk
