Package: gpsman
Version: 6.4-2
Severity: wishlist

Currently gpsman depends on tk8.4. And gpsman.tcl invokes that
particular wish version (wish8.4). (There is also wish8.2 reference in
some other file, but that's other issue).
Tcl/tk 8.4 fonts are, let's say, ugly. Version 8.5 introduces support
for antialiased fonts. I changed the version in other app (tkcvs) and
result was just amasing. Difference in font look was HUGE.
For the test I changed wish8.4 to wish in gpsman.tcl, changed wish
alternatives to 8.5 and gpsman started fine and was operating.
Moreover, it was good looking.
So I can't see the reason of not changing wish<x.y> to wish in gpsman files.
