Description:
Arch's VTK distribution lacks a `vtk` binary. This binary should be able to run tcl scripts.

Steps to reproduce:
1. pacman -S vtk
2. vtk officetest.tcl

Am I missing something here?
   officetest.tcl (13.6 KiB)
This task depends upon

Hmm. vtk always provided a library, but I've never used a vtk binary before. Also, It would make sense that you run tcl normally (not through vtk)

I will maybe look into it tomorrow, maybe you're right..

I just looked into it and you're right, for some reason vtk doesn't enable tcl wrapper even though tcl is installed during configuration. I will rebuild vtk to add this. There are also other features of vtk which are turned off, but I didn't think they are worth having. If you disagree open other bug reports for those features.
