(In reply to Walter Schwarzenfeld from comment #20)

If the port Makefile doesn't specify minimum TCL/TK required for Secpanel and
someone tries to run an installed Secpanel under TCL/TK < 8.0, they will get a
warning message. That is OK as it would inform the user that they need to
install a suitable version of TCL/TK. I just thought that if the TCL/TK minimum
version check was in the Makefile, then a user will know up front (sooner,
quicker?) that they will require a newer version of TCL/TK.

Not having a version check within the Makefile doesn't affect the port
installation as there is no code assembly/compilation performed. Having the
TCL/TK version check in the Makefile would then be "convenience" addition.
