Severity: important
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

Since Tcl/Tk 8.5 has reached its end of life we are seeking to remove it from
Debian. So please, switch the tkgate package to 8.6 (or to a currently default
version which is 8.6 anyway).

I'm attaching a proposed NMU which replaces tcl8.5-dev, tk8.5-dev by simply
tcl-dev, tk-dev (the current default version), and adds a definition which
allows the program to build using Tcl/Tk 8.6 (it enables a deprecated struct
field). If you don't mind, I could do this upload for you.
