Description: When installing remind, it recommends the installation of tk in order for the tkremind program to work. After installing tk, tkremind will still not run, instead issuing an error: "could not find the 'mime' package -- you must install tclib. Please see http://tclib.sourceforge.net/". Installing the mime package does not fix the problem. And there is no "tclib" package. Version 4.4.0-1 x86_64 of remind package. This appears to simply need a change to the suggested package requisites.
This task depends upon

Did you copy that error directly? Are you talking about tcllib, not tclib?

Mistake in the original details-- "tclib" should be "tcllib". However, this makes no difference. There is no "tcllib" package either. And tcl was already installed.

tcllib is in AUR [1]
