Bug#264473: filerunner: frcolor and frftp refer to missing wish8.0 binary
Package: filerunner
Version: 2.5.1-14
Severity: normal
I'd just re-open # 190927, which was my own bug, but you can't re-open
an archived bug, apparently. Fooey on me for not paying attention when
someone closed it without fixing it.
Regarding the comment at the end of that bug... the alternative does not
control. Neither frcolor or frftp use the alternatives system to find
the wish binary... they attempt to call wish8.0 directly. Since
unstable is currently at tk 8.4, that's not going to work.
The fix is the same... change the two subprograms to call 'wish', rather
than 'wish8.0'. Upstream missed a couple, and so did the Debian
maintainer.
