Changes between Initial Version and Version 1 of Ticket #56825, comment 1

initial	v1
1	1	I was actually expecting this error, because a similar one occurred when I was making the p5-tcl-ptk port. Somehow I was able to install p5-tcl-tk yesterday without error; now after uninstalling and cleaning, I get this error.
2	2
3		I don't know what exactly is causing the error. There's a test in Makefile.PL that checks for Tcl/Tk and certain Tk extensions by tclsh with a script test-for-tk.tcl, but for some reason, Perl never gets any output from tclsh when run from MacPorts, whereas I can run Makefile.PL manually and it will work.

5	5	The workaround I ended up using for p5-tcl-ptk was removing the test with a patch to Makefile.PL, and instead trusting MacPorts to properly install Tcl/Tk and tklib (cf. https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/2036). I will probably apply the same workaround here if I can't figure out why there's no output from tclsh to Perl when MacPorts runs Makefile.PL.
