you need to re-emerge python with tk support. USE="tcltk" emerge python i've added a warning to that effect when you try to install it without tkinter support in python.
that did the trick, thanks
Reopening because I'm resolving this. Tired of seeing it in my list.
Resolved
It's broken again. I'm running the protage (info below) and I get this even after reemerging python with USE="tcltk" emerge python and then trying emerge pysol. root@gandalf files # emerge pysol Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) games-board/pysol-4.82 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) pysol-4.82.tar.bz2 * You need to recompile python with Tkinter support. * That means: USE='tcltk' emerge python !!!
