build log
Please note that Tk 8.5.13 macosx/* sources are for Cocoa now,
not Carbon.
I realize the use of this API prevents Tk 8.5.13 from building on 10.5; the fix was necessary to address a serious bug in setting the fullscreen attribute on toplevel windows. As such, I would have to advise that Tk > 8.5.12 is no longer supported on 10.5.
Thank you for the explanation. It seems that tk 8.5.13 is still working on Leopard by omitting the quartz parts. This is now the default MacPorts variant for OSX <= 10.5.
I still build Aqua Tk on Leopard (though not intensively) so I've restored the ability to build; it lets me run the widget demo, so that appears to be good. If I've understood the code correctly, this breaks fullscreen handling on Leopard, but that's how it goes. Given the size of outright breakage (one feature that not *too* many apps use) I can live with that trade-off.
