Description Thierry Thomas freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-04-18 14:01:36 UTC 
I'm in the process of upgrading math/plplot to 5.11, but the option TCLTK cannot be activated, because:

-- IWIDGETS_VERSIONS_LIST = 4.0.1; 3.3; 3.4
-- PLPLOT_IWIDGETS_VERSION = 4.0.1
-- Checking that the Iwidgets, Itk, and Itcl packages are consistent
-- PLPLOT_ITK_VERSION = 3.3
-- CONSISTENT_ITK_VERSION =  3.3
-- PLPLOT_ITCL_VERSION = 3.4
-- CONSISTENT_ITCL_VERSION =  3.4
-- Checking that the Iwidgets, Itk, and Itcl packages are consistent - false
-- WARNING: Consistent combination of Iwidgets, Itk, and Itcl not found so disabling Itcl and Itk

It appears that itcl and itk should be upgraded together, either to 4.0.1, or to 3.4.1.

Is there any reason why x11-toolkits/itk lags to 3.3? Or why x11-toolkits/itk4 does not exist (like we have lang/itcl4)?

If not, I could try to provide a patch, just let me know.

Instead of updating itcl to 34, would it make more sense to update itcl to 4, remove itcl4, and add an itcl3 if needed? (with itk tracking 4 and an itk3 if needed).
