Re: confusion over tcl/tk packages
Michael, I give up. What's the difference between tk4.2_4.2p2-6.deb and tk42_4.2p2-6.deb Well the package names usually go by: Name_Version-DebianPackageVersion So they are _probably_ the same thing. It is just that they included the version in package name, and listed it two different ways. On my 1.3.1 CD, all the tcl and tk stuff is listed the second way, so it might be a mistake on the ftp site. tk4.2_4.2p2-6.deb and tcl76_7.6p2-6.deb. Well, tcl is a general scripting language, while tk is a toolkit that allows tcl scripts to have a graphical (Motif-ish) look under X. You will need tcl to run tk. For more info on the versions and dependancies, don't forget to look in the PACKAGES file. A question of my own.. what does the /p1/p2/p3 stand for in the program version of tk or tcl Is that just a way of listing a minor revision under tk/tcl?
