--- Comment #12 from Pietro Cerutti <gahr@FreeBSD.org> ---
The issue, in general, is that expect installs several scripts with names
identical to other well-established packages. astro/weather is an example,
mail/rftp would be another.

I think it's still reasonable to have them all in the dedicated directory
%%DATADIR%% and let users either add that to PATH if needed, or call the
scripts with tclsh8.6 /usr/local/share/expect/foo.

On the other hand, since the scripts invoke tclsh in their shebangs, I think
it's reasonable to let expect depend on tcl-wrapper.

Would that work for you?
