media-gfx/replicatorg-40-r1::gentoo should force tk use flag on python 1. Set your machine 2. load stl example 20mm.stl 3. Gcode -> Generate Complains about python-tk package missing.
But, is this needed only for some examples?
This problem is/was there for any model loaded. replicatorg is maybe not as popular as slic3r. So I do not know who is using this replicatorg. I would not mind if this package would simply vanish. The last update is 2012, 3D printing has evolved a lot since.
OK, I will CC treecleaners and point people to media-gfx/slic3r
Yes, I'm the original maintainer of this package and there hasn't even been a single post in the upstream developer mailing list for 2years.... Most users have also probably migrated to online/cloud solutions like tinkercad or other modeling software which have 3dprinting output plugins. It's time to put this software in the graveyard.
