++ Two years is enough. That's even more than what took Python 2.5 to get out p.mask ;-) After various heads up on the bug and on @g-dev, I think it's time to unmask. Incompatible packages should be fixed ASAP (after unmasking) or punted from the tree if they can't keep up with tcl/tk development. Best regards, -- Santiago M. Mola Jabber ID: [email protected]
