Source: plplot
Version: 5.9.2-3

Hi!

Appears that plplot build-depend on itcl3-dev and itk3-dev, and
plplot-tcl depends on iwidgets4. Recently, itcl3 and itk3 packages
were migrated to Tcl/Tk 8.5, so build-dpending on tcl8.4-dev and
itcl3-dev and build-conflicting on tcl8.5-dev becomes impossible.

I see two possible ways to resolve this situation:

1) Given the fact that Tk, Itk and Itcl interface are actually
disabled in cmake/modules/tcl-related.cmake you may just remove any
dependency on itcl3, itk3, iwidgets4. They seem useless to me. Also,
I'd suggest you to migrate to tcl8.5 instead of tcl8.4 (as 8.5 becomes
the default Tcl version in squeeze soon).

2) You may enable Itcl, Itk and Tk interface and port plplot build
system to use Tcl/Tk 8.5. The attached patch does that (it's rather
simple - build-depend on tcl8.5, build-conflict on tcl8.4, enable
Itcl, Itk, Tk in cmake/modules/tcl-related.cmake).

If you want, I could make a non-maintainer upload with the second option.

Cheers!
