Hi Giulio,
Yes, this was already reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/719109
Which was reassigned to tk8.5, since 'obviously' it has broken some
existing interface in the new version.
Giampiero, can you shed any more light on this? Is wavesurfer doing
something unusual that tk was "allowed" to break, or is this really
a bug that the tk folk need to fix?
Cheers,
Ron
