In rawhide, the current Tcl/Tk version is 9, while itk is still compiled for version 8. As itcl has been rebuilt for version 9, this inconsistency lets itk unusable, even with Tcl version 8. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run "tclsh" 2. package require itcl --> OK 3. package require itk --> fails Actual Results: $ tclsh % package require itcl 4.3.2 % package require itk can't find package itk % package require Iwidgets version conflict for package "Tcl": have 9.0.2, need 8.0 % Expected Results: Proper package loadings Additional Information: As shown above, Iwidgets fails too (I can file a separate BZ# if you need it). itk 4.2.3 should be packaged for Tcl9 (I have an updated spec file for my local tests, I can attach it if you wish so). Probably among others, these problems make the insight debugger unusable. You might also consider providing packages itcl8, itk8 and iwidgets8, as this has been done for the tcl and tk packages for the version transition. This is not a request, just a suggestion, as insight is ready for Tcl/Tk 9. I have built local packages some months ago for my own needs and thus I may provide some materials/info (although I would not become a comaintainer!). Thanks for considering this.
Please note this also occurs in Fedora 43 beta
I left PRs fixing this for itk and iwidgets: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/itk/pull-request/1 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/iwidgets/pull-request/1 Please review and apply. Thanks.
