Tcl extensions can be implemented in two ways: they either link to a tcl interpreter library like libtcl8.5, or they link to this wrapper library[1] libtclstub which takes care of differences between tcl versions. Almost all tcl extensions in Debian, including rrdtool, currently use libtclstub. > Anyway, the problems seems to be the fourth parameter to Tcl_PkgRequire > -- I suppose this should almost certainly be 0.

Do you expect any problems from that? No, I don’t foresee problems from keeping the PkgRequire. I also wish I knew why it worked before.
