Bug 261259 – dev-lang/tk-8.4.18 responsible for /usr/bin/idle not working

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Maciej Józiewicz 2009-03-05 08:14:08 UTC]

I wanted to learn Python so I tried starting idle. It wouldn't work (the exact message is in the forum thread I linked). I solved the problem upgrading tk to unstale 8.4.18-r1

Reproducible: Always
