[Tcllib-devel] Tklib 0.7 Release - Candidate 1 - Please test

[Andreas K. <aku...@sh...>]

Pushing on making a release for Tklib.

See
	https://core.tcl-lang.org/tklib/timeline?r=tklib-0-7-rc

for the branch this work is happening on.

With commit [1] we are now at RC 1.

With regard to testing

- Most packages have no such.

- Plotchart passes.

- widgetPlus has some 42 failures which look to be something around
  event loop handling and scroll callbacks. The tests apparently
  expect a scroll callback which does not happen in my environment.
  This is after me making some of the tests sort of work by
  initializing various global variables expected to be set by the
  missing callback.

  Keith, please advise.

  My environment:

	Platform: Linux amd64
	Core:	  8.4.20, 8.5.19, 8.6.9
	With:	  tcllibc

Please test this revision in your environments as well.

Note, while I am aware of the Tcl 8.7a3 and 9.0a1 RCs these are still
alpha releases. I have not tested against them, I do not plan to test
against them yet, and test suite failures against them are not release
blockers.

I am looking towards making the release on the Jan 17-19 weekend,
i.e. 1.5 weeks from now.


My test controller:
