I think Pd ought to have worked with TK8.3 with no problem... it's just that the compiled program in teh release looks for 8.0... it should have been possible to replace 8.0 with 8.3 in the makefile and recompile.
However, I don't know how I can release a Pd binary that works on all reasonable linux platforms if the name of the library keeps changing! any ideas??? I may have to start making binary-less releases and make everyone do the ./configure dance, but I'd really like to avoid this.
Funny thing about the tcl/tk guys is, that they change the library name for each minor release. This is bad practice.
I am using a configure script to detect tcl/tk libraries, this could be included into the release for those who have to recompile.
