Package: vim-gtk
Version: 2:7.2.330-1
Severity: minor

tcl8.4 now conflicts with various things (trying to rebuild graphviz in
my case). If vim-gtk really needs tcl, can the dependency be upgraded to
8.5/6 please! Ideally, make the tcl dependency optional, because it's
probably not needed by most users these days...

No, tcl8.4 doesn't conflict with anything relevant.  graphviz
Build-Conflicts with tcl8.4 and tcl8.3.  Presumably, you're trying to
build in your normal environment instead of a chroot which is causing
tcl8.4 and anything that Depends on it to be removed.  That's not a bug
in Vim.

Vim doesn't specifically care what version it's built against.  It just
Build-Depends on tcl-dev and builds against whatever version that is.
It'll get built against tcl8.5 when the next upload happens or if
binNMUs are requested for the 8.4 -> 8.5 transition.
