The problem, it seems, occurs because Tk 8.6 proxibits using different
child windows layout mechanisms on the same parent window which Tkabber
versions < 1.0 unfortunately use.

I think it worth uploading 1.1 into unstable (which is long overdue
anyway) instead of fixing the old stuff.

Thanks for reporting!  (The devs, including me, tend to run bleeding
edge version of their software anyway so such problems are relatively
hard to spot.)

Bug#742867: tkabber is not compatible with tk 8.6

2014-03-28 Thread Josef Kufner 
Package: tkabber
Version: 0.11.1-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

after upgrade to tk 8.6 my tkabber went crazy. It throws a lot of various
errors and it is impossible to add new contact to roster.

I replaced tk package with tk8.5 and everything works again.

Quick fix: mark tkabber package as conflicting with tkabber >= 8.6 and let it
depend on tk8.5 package.

Have a nice day!
