ALL distributions that I'm familiar with are adding a symlink
"/usr/bin/tclsh" to whatever specific version of the shell is included
when tcl is installed.

Update: just checked, and the symlink "tclsh" is included with the
current tcl package of Debian Sid as well as with the package of Debian
Stretch.

@cmeerw, can you try to re-install the tcl package?

Title:
  needs to depend on tcl (not just tcl8.6)

Status in usb-modeswitch package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  * Impact

  the usb-modeswitch dispatcher script fails to start on the default
  installation because it uses tclsh unversioned while we depends on
  tcl8.6

  
  * Test Case

  $ /usr/sbin/usb_modeswitch_dispatcher

  shouldn't bail out on an interpreter error

  (or better, test that plugging an usb modem is correctly handled)

  
  * Regression potential

  The script was bailing out due to a missing intepreter before so the
  code wasn't tested, it's possible that it triggers errors or could
  interact with the system in some way. The dispatcher reacts to udev
  events when an usb modem is connected, so try to use one of those and
  make sure that there is no negative effect (and if possible that the
  modem gets correctly handled)

  --------------------------

  
  the package currently depends on tcl8.6, but 
/usr/sbin/usb_modeswitch_dispatcher actually requires /usr/bin/tclsh which 
isn't provided by tcl8.6, so it likely would need to depend on something like 
tcl (= 8.6)
