Umm, yeah! Here are the full descriptions from running 'dpkg --info'
on the .deb files.

DESCRIPTION: The scotty programs and libraries.
Scotty is a set of Tcl extensions to retrieve status information about
TCP/IP networks. The extensions include commands to send icmp packets
a la ping, to lookup hostnames, to query the portmapper and mount
daemons. Also included are generic tcp/udp extensions as well as
commands to query the domain name service for a, ptr, hinfo, mx and soa
records and commands to query ntp server. log messages can be written
by using the syslog command. The perhaps most interesting extension is
an interface to the SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 protocols.
DESCRIPTION: The tkined network editor.
When used in conjunction with the scotty package, tkined can be used
as a small but nice network management station.
