Yes, that’s a much clearer way to say it. Thank you. Regards, Jonathan I suggested using build-depends including tk-dev (>= 8.5), tk (>= 8.5), tcl-dev (>= 8.5), tcl (>= 8.5), since experimental buildds use a version of “use packages from sid by default” that can sometimes be counterintuitive[1]. But that was overkill --- since recently[2], one can just specify which direct build-deps from experimental to use without listing their dependencies from experimental by hand: tk-dev (>= 8.5), tcl-dev (>= 8.5), See [3] for an example.
