Package: tcl-ttkthemes Version: 3.2.0-1 Severity: grave Justification: this renders another package 'tclsh' unusable, as well as this package itself X-Debbugs-Cc: dusthillresid...@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer, When this package is installed, 'tclsh' (the Tcl interpreter, provided by debian package 'tcl') becomes broken in such a way that it's no longer possible to import/load the Tk graphics/gui extension (provided by debian package 'tk'). Although I'm reporting from a Debian Stable system, this bug is happening in Ubuntu too, and this package seems obscure so I assume this may still be an issue that nobody else has noticed or fixed yet. Steps to reproduce: 0. Start a X windows/desktop session. 1. Install debian packages 'tcl', and 'tk', and 'tcl-ttkthemes', perhaps with this command or similar: sudo apt-get install tcl tk tcl-ttkthemes 2. Create a text file with the name 'test.tcl' and put these lines in it: package require Tk pack [ label .l -text "Debian" ] 3. Open a terminal window and run this command: tclsh test.tcl 4. Observe that this error message is printed and the script exits: circular package dependency: attempt to provide Tk Ϻ£ü requires Tk while executing "package require Tk" (file "test.tcl" line 1) 5. Uninstall debian package 'tcl-ttkthemes'. 6. Run 'tclsh test.tcl' again, and note that this time the error is not printed and the script opens a window with text "Debian" in it.
