hello,

some old programs do not work or to be recompiled with new tcltk.

is a compatibility package with 8.3.* possible ?

for use this old programs with FC2, I have recompiled some SRPMS (i.e.
python, rythmbox, ...) with tcltk 8.3, but this is not a good solution
for many users.

(sorry for my bad englih)


Some private functions and variables from tk have been moved to the namespace ::tk and this has broken programs that used them. One of such programs is tkgnats. It uses the function tkCancelRepeat. Using replacing it by ::tk::CancelRepeat fixes the problem. Maybe a mention about this deprecation in tk should be included in the release notes for FC2 if it isn't there already.
