The behaviour I saw, which was off course due to an admin fault on my side,
confirms what configure.in asks for:
---------------------------------------
# Find the version of "wish" that corresponds to TCL_EXEC_PREFIX
# We really ought to run "ldd" to confirm that the linked libraries match.
AC_MSG_CHECKING([for wish executable])
for dir in \
${TK_EXEC_PREFIX}/bin \
${TK_EXEC_PREFIX}
do
for wishexe in \
wish \
wish${TK_VERSION} \
wish.exe \
wish${TK_VERSION}.exe
do
if test -r "$dir/$wishexe" ; then
WISH_EXE=$dir/$wishexe
break
fi
done
if test "x${WISH_EXE}" != "x" ; then
break
fi
done
---------------------------------------------
it takes "wish" as the lowest common denominator, which debian then expands
to the current version, either wish8.4 or wish8.5 on my system, depending where
/etc/alternatives/wish points to.
-------------------------------------------
j...@debianlenny:/usr/bin$ ls -l wish*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2008-08-16 15:29 wish -> /etc/alternatives/wish
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4032 2008-07-15 19:12 wish8.4
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4184 2008-11-08 18:49 wish8.5
j...@debianlenny:/usr/bin$
--------------------------------------------
Hope this helps

Jan de Kruyf.
