Permission to upload Tcl/Tk 8.5.9-1



Hi release team!

I'd like to upload a new bugfix release of Tcl/Tk 8.5 (8.5.9-1). The
previous one was 10 months ago, and this release fixes a fair number
of bugs (including crashes). They weren't reported in Debian BTS, but
two of them were reported for Ubuntu (see [1] and [2]).

Almost all changes in this release are bugfixes, only a few new
features were developed, so I don't expect many new bugs.

The full release notes see in [3].

See also four diffs ([4], [5], [6], [7]). Two of them are simply the results of

debdiff -w tcl8.5_8.5.8-2.dsc tcl8.5_8.5.9-1.dsc
debdiff -w tk8.5_8.5.8-1.dsc tk8.5_8.5.9-1.dsc

and all irrelevant files are excluded from the other two
(documentation files, generated files like configure, files specific
for MacOS or MS Mindows systems, timezone data (the system-wide ones
are used)).

If you think that the upload is acceptable, I'll do it shortly.
