rhiannon$ cat /usr/ports/devel/vtcl/pkg/DESCR
Visual Tcl is a freely-available, high-quality application development
environment for UNIX, Window$ and Macintosh platforms.
Visual Tcl is written entirely in Tcl/Tk. No extensions.
Tcl7.5 and Tk4.1 or later are required.

rhiannon$ grep BUILD_DEPENDS /usr/ports/devel/vtcl/Makefile
BUILD_DEPENDS= wish4.2:${PORTSDIR}/x11/tk42
As you can see, the DESCR for this package states that it requires tcl7.5
and tk4.1; however, the _package_ requires tk4.2.
I am sure that I am not the only one that has a problem with having multiple
versions of TCL and TK... If this port only requires tk4.1, then it should
build as long as _at least_ tk41 is installed, no? Is there a better way to
specify the dependencies so that it will build as long as tk4.1 (or higher) is
installed? Or is the DESCR just wrong?
