in reply to why '[cpan://module]' isn't always easy to use

The reason you're having problems is because two libraries (TclTk and Tcl-Tk) share the same namespace (Tcl::Tk).

[cpan://] searches 'Modules'. I usally get better results by searching for 'All'. 'All' actually lists the TclTk (old version of Tcl::Tk) library followed immediately by the Tcl-Tk library (new version of Tcl::Tk).

    Elder naming convention belonged to Malcolm and I do not dare even thinking about removing them.
    (or may be it is reasonable?)

    Probably removing old version will cure situation...
