>Description:
The current x11-toolkits/p5-Tk port is based on
Tk-804.025_beta6. This is problematic, because
* The 804.025 beta series is not yet stable enough
* There are (still) incompatibilites which may break older
Perl/Tk scripts (and in fact it breaks the german/BBBike
port)
* Using 804.025 forces the user to upgrade their perl.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
The best solution would be to create two ports: one with the
old Tk800.025 port source and a new one with the current
Tk804.025
port source. The naming of both could be
* "p5-Tk800" and "p5-Tk"
* "p5-Tk" and "p5-Tk-devel"
* "p5-Tk-800" and "p5-Tk-804"
or so.
In either case, the german/BBBike dependency should be changed
to use the older port.
