This is a long-standing issue.  My solution has been to massage the output
of ``openpkg build'' to add ``--nodeps'' to the installation commands for
tcl and expect before running the generated script.

If you want government to intervene domestically, you're a liberal.  If you
want government to intervene overseas, you're a conservative.  If you want
government to intervene everywhere, you're a moderate.  If you don't want
government to intervene anywhere, you're an extremist -- Joseph Sobran
