Currently I use something like --with-tcl-config=/usr/lib/tclConfig.sh --with-tk-config=/usr/lib/tkConfig.sh Wild guess: You are still using tcl85-dev and tk8.5-dev. Switch to 8.6 for both and defaults should work. See eg this Dockerfile with the 'recipe' for building R(-devel) from source; it too relies on tck/tk 8.6 now.
