Tk uses Tcl, and Tcl sets a list of directories where Tk_Init tries to
find tk.tcl.
tcl8.4 8.4.16-4 fixes this directories list and should make Tk_Init
from tk8.4 8.4.16-1 working.

It also should work with older versions of tk8.4.

So, if you certainly need some features of 8.4.16 which aren't
available in earlier versions just add a dependency on tk8.4 (>=
8.4.16). But I doubt that it's necessary.
