Script wordview from package catdoc depend on Tcl/tk.
Maybe, it's better to remove it from package than add dependency.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Won't implement
Additional comments about closing:  Pacman doesn't handle optional dependencies.

I don't like post-install messages: To much packages use it. This leads to overlooked important messages.

Archlinux users are smart and will install TCL/TK when the wordview script fails because of the missing interpreter.

a message in post_install() will be sufficient, it is optional run-time dependency
