[47462] trunk/dports/net/scotty/Portfile

[Jeremy Huddleston]

Not exactly...

tkined is just a wish script.  It doesn't need anything from xorg-libs  
directly.  It just needs wish.  wish is provided by its other  
dependencies.

In fact, tkined doesn't even run here.  It tries to use the system  
wish (which isn't X11 based, btw) and fails with:

/opt/local/bin $ ./tkined
Error in startup script: can't find package Tkined 1.5.0
     while executing
"package require -exact Tkined 1.5.0"
     (file "./tkined" line 12)
