This broke pbulk:

  pbulk-resolve: No match found for dependency py26-Tk>=2.7.5nb1 of package 
py26-OpenGL-3.0.1nb2
  pbulk-resolve: No match found for dependency py26-Tk>=2.7.5nb1 of package 
py26-imagingtk-1.1.7nb4
  pbulk-resolve: No match found for dependency py26-Tk>=2.7.5nb1 of package 
py26-matplotlib-tk-1.2.0nb2

The problem is py-Tk's buildlink3.mk:

  BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.pytk+=    ${PYPKGPREFIX}-Tk>=2.7.5nb1

which needs to be changed to use PY_DISTVERSION instead, but I do not
off-hand know of a clean way to do this.  This originated due to a
revbump, so it's possible the revbump tools will need fixing too to
understand this versioning scheme.

Please fix.

Thanks,
