I found quite a few software packages that do depend on perlTk (eg. sixpack, which is IMO the best bibtex fronted available). Should be included, at least in powertools.
It's in the DMA CD (what used to be called the CPAN CD, but now has Python and R modules, as well as Zope products on the same CD. It's the Developer Module Archive CD.I don't think that inclusion on the next release (the distro) is an option this late in the development cycle. Tim
reopening for (inclusion in) Fairfax. Too late this time, too?
Changing this to an enhancement request.
perl-Tk, though useful, is of significant size. it will be considered in the future but is unlikely to be included.
