Just to say that in debian, the tcl/tk library are accessed not with plain -ltk -ltcl, but that they have the version appended in order to have multiple versions of tcl/tk. So maybe your troubles building Gerd's stuff may be related to that, but then maybe not. > Perhaps you're informing me that ocaml with tkinter is already Err, i don't know about tkinter. the debian packages are mostly plain upstream sources, with some collection of added fixes, mostly taken out of CVS. > available in your Debian packages.

You are aware of Stefano's backport repository, which was reptedly announced here, are you not ?
