The version for the SOAP::Utils package in pkgIndex.tcl does not match what is listed in the utils.tcl file. In tcl 8.4. and earlier, this did not cause any problems. But in Tcl 8.5, this generates an error when running 'package require SOAP'.
The attached patch updates the version in pkgIndex.tcl to match utils.tcl.

This problem appears to continue to exist. The version of SOAP made available via ActiveState's teapot displays the following behavior:
$ tclsh8.5
% package require soap
can't find package soap
% package require SOAP
circular package dependency: attempt to provide SOAP 1.6.7 requires SOAP
