Where do these names come from ?
These are not real packages.

>  dict 
Backport of tcl 8.5 dict facility for 8.4. Do not use in 8.5.

>  newclock 
Backport of tcl 8.5 clock facility for 8.4. Do not use in 8.5.

>  tbcload84 > tbcload85 
Remove. Not real packages. ... I see that they are in the teapot. I have to
remove them there too.

(tbcload is copiled for both 8.4 and 8.5, the tbcload is a composite which
selects the proper binary automatically. The *84/85 packages are the parts
and should not be visible).

Expected, see above, the names are bogus.

Expected. Although it should work for 8.4.

>  TclOO: can't find package TclOO

don't know why.

>  Tix: Can't find a usable Init.tcl in the following directories:
>      /tmp/.lwv/ActiveTcl-8.5/lib/tcl8.5/Tix8.4.2

Tix is apparently not as TEA as I thought. It configures, compiles, links,
etc. and made no indication that anything was wrong during that. Likely a
bug in Tix itself. We use sources from the 'tix' SF project, not the
'tixlibrary' sf project.

Which pkgIndex.tcl files contained the bogus names pcx, pixmap, etc. ?
