Comment:

 Replying to [comment:8 chrstphrchvz]:
 > I do not think ports should now be added for Tcl/Tk 8.4. The developers
 of Tcl/Tk say 8.4 is long unsupported and want anyone still using it to
 upgrade. The same probably goes for Tcl/Tk 8.5 which is now end-of-life.

 8.6-compatible version (available but not officially released), or
 replaced with a BLT alternative compatible with 8.6.

 ticket, and should this ticket be closed?

 I agree with this.\\
 I have made a little bit of progress getting blt to work with Tcl 8.6, but
 that is a discussion for ticket #15095.
