Package: viewmol
Version: 2.4.1-25
Followup-For: Bug #938774

This is a tricky bug.  viewmol is still quite useful, a tad bit-rotted
and using old tk technology, but I don't know of another tool which
enables both visualisation and molecule building with the same ease
that viewmol does. grace is in the same class, old technology but no
one has used the new technologies to write a better program. Perhaps a
new one has come out that I just haven't seen yet.

viewmol itself is not a python program, it is build on tk.  It uses
python to provide add-on functionality.

It would a shame to drop viewmol. Nice if someone has time to port its
python support to python3. Perhaps it could still function with the
python support amputated.
