How would I do that? I'm not very familiar with Perl's package 
internals, so it's not clear to me how to delete a package and/or 
rebuild it--cpan doesn't seem to support this.

Another question, though, is more general: I had a build of Tcl/Tk 8.6 
elsewhere on my path and Tkx picked that up without crashing; but when I 
deleted that, it found Tk 8.5.13 and crashed. Why is this? This is a 
concern because I was hoping to deploy an app on the Mac that linked to 
whatever version of Tcl/Tk was installed by the system (bundling a tkkit 
won't work because of Mac App Store rules), and it needs to be reliable.
