Python 2.5 Tkinter not configured

[Jim]

I compiled Python 2.5 from python.org and I get an error message when I try
to import the Tkinter module. Python reports that there is no such module.
It says my Python isn't configured for Tkinter. How do I configure it? I'm
using GCC 4.1.1 to compile the tarball. Thanks for any help with this.

You need to have tcl/tk together with it's development-headers
installed. Python _should_ figure out where things are, and then be
configured to include tkinter.

That was the problem, I got it working after recompiling. Thanks.
