Try running the tk version instead: `display.tk`.

Hmm... this should have failed with an error.

Draft depends on the perl SGI::FAM module, and (stupidly, because it
is under heavy development) the perl Gtk2 module.

Neither seem to have debian packages so you have to install them via
CPAN (as root):

    perl -MCPAM -e 'install SGI::FAM'
    perl -MCPAN -e 'install Gtk2'
