Description John L. Chmielewski 2025-03-13 16:30:44 UTC
The wish -f option was removed in tk-9.0.  This causes wish to not start ncid using ncid.spec 1.17.7.  Using ncid.spec 1.17.8, and the ncid-exec-wish-fix.patch, fixes it by removing the "-f" option from the wish line in ncid.sh.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. execute ncid
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
The TK-9.0 wish shell is not able to start the ncid client.

Expected Results:  
The TK-9.0 wish shell starts the ncid client.
