-----------------------+--------------------------------
 The tcl/tk 8.6 upgrade in MacPorts also has broke the ABPS Tools2 plugin
 component (apbs_tools.py) in the[[BR]]
 pymol package. When the APBS Tools2 menu item in the Plugins menu of pymol
 is selected, the following error occurs...

 This appears to be a general issue with the new tcl/tk 8,6 which is
 inhibiting many grpups from migrating to it due to the regression in
 functionality for legacy code.[[BR]]
