Tcl/Tk Support

[Diego.andrade]

Hi,

Im not a Python programer, but I need to use Python on some aplications CVS
related. Im trying to install ViewCVS who need Tkinter library. But It
doesnt Work. Im using RedHat 9 Default Installation, to test if Tcl/Tk
suport for Python is working I Type in the Python console import tkinter and
received the following output:

[root@Diego-Linux root]# python
Python 2.2.2 (#1, Feb 24 2003, 19:13:11)
[GCC 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-4)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.Traceback (most recent call last):

Im searching over the Python.org for a explanation of what I have to do but
with no sucess...

Thanks for help.

Diego.

Yes... I typed import Tkinter too but the output was the same!

how I do to install support for Tkinter? Can I download the Tkinter.py file
and paste in the include directory of Python2.2?

You'll probably have to install a package called something like
"tk8.3-dev" (that's what it's called in Debian), download the Python
source, and build Python. It's possible that the RPMs for Python already
have Tkinter built in, but you'll still need to install Tcl/Tk to make it
work.
