As far as I can see there is no tcltk directory - can someone
tell me where I'm going wrong or if something is missing?

Tkd requires other D source libraries to correctly use and link
against pre-existing C libraries. The source dependencies are as
follows:
* https://github.com/nomad-software/tcltk
* https://github.com/nomad-software/x11
Dub handles these automatically and during a build acquires them.
While building, the tcltk repository is configured to link
against the required Tcl/Tk libraries, hence they need to be
installed for the application to function.

Tkd requires version 8.6 (or greater) of the Tcl/Tk libraries
installed. A small exception is when creating a self-contained
installation on Windows. See details below. Tcl/Tk itself
requires the x11 libraries installed on Linux only.

I was hoping to keep a tight rein on what was required to be
installed to simplify deployment but its spiraling out of
control again LOL.

This is exactly why you use dub, so you don't have to worry about
all this!
