Package: newt-tcl
Version: 0.52.20-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

As I can see, newt-tcl is built using Tcl/Tk 8.6, but depends on tcl8.3 |
tcl8.4 | tcl8.5. Please, replace them by tcl8.6 (8.3 and 8.4 are already
dropped from Debian, and tcl8.5 is about to be). If it's okay to you, I
could upload the package with the attached patch (it just fixes the
dependencies).
