Why dont you simply install Tcl 8.3 and Tk 8.3?  On my Debian machine
I have both Tcl/Tk 8.0.x and 8.3.x.  python 1.5.2 was installed from
debs and python 2.1 from source.  1.5.2 used to use tcl/tk 8.0.x (a
newer version uses 8.3.x) and Python 2.1 with 8.3.x.  It all works
perfectly well.

You cant specify that when you install a binary RPM - you could build
the SRPM and re-build it.
