note tcl is missing from the dependencies.

Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'tk8.4'; however, that package was not published in Nexenta Operating System.

[Tim Spriggs (tim-tajinc)]

This issue still exists. The package needs to be recompiled with the dependency manually added.

# apt-cache show tk8.4 | grep tcl
