 |
|
Hello there
I'm trying to run a python app, with needs TKinter to create a gui, apparently.
The problem is that I have set the "tk" flag and re-emerged python. In fact, I have /usr/lib/python3.1/lib-dynload/_tkinter.so in my system, but I still get
| Code: |
ImportError: No module named TKinter
|
when trying to run an app.
I also ran python-updater after re-emerge, and even tried to run the *.py program with phyton3.1directly intead of the default one. Always the same error.

| I belive the module is now named 'tkinter' in Python 3. |

I know it's an old thread, so I hope everyone has already figured it out by now. If you haven't, here is something that worked for me.
| Code: | /etc/portage/package.use
dev-lang/python tk |
| Code: | | emerge -v --newuse python |
Now, "import tkinter" (for Python 3.x) should work, but if it gives you "ImportError: No module named tkinter", make sure you are using the right Python version. For my case, I had v2.7, v3.1 (as default), and v3.2.
| Code: | $ eselect python list
Available Python interpreters:
[1] python2.7
[2] python3.1 *
[3] python3.2
|
"tk" use flag was applied to v3.2 only, so when I ran python v3.1, it didn't know anything about tk use flag. I set the default Python to v3.2, and the problem went away.
