You shall be able to choose tcl 8.5 with: sudo update-alternatives --config wish
Then, did this error prevent Pd from loading? Afaicr, plugins' errors shall not block Pd.

On Ubuntu Lucid (10.04LTS) Pd-extended-0.43 deb from the launchpad.netrepository. Pd won't start properly in that it complains that it need Tcl/Tk8.5. Tcl/Tk8.5 is installed, but so is Tcl/Tk8.4.
(Tcl) UNHANDLED ERROR: version conflict for package "Tk": have 8.4, need 8.5
while executing"package require Tk 8.5" ("uplevel" body line 10) invoked from within "uplevel #0 $tclcode"FAILED TO LOAD /usr/lib/pd-extended/extra/search-plugin/search-plugin.tcl
So I tried changing the symlinks in /usr/lib to point to 8.5. This lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 2013-01-24 09:45 libtk.a -> libtk8.5.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2013-01-24 09:45 libtk.so -> libtk8.5.so
Still no good. Could Pd-extended be made to force the use of the 8.5 libs?
