Bug 223169 – media-gfx/skencil-0.6.18_pre20080519 asks for python with Tkinter.

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 150712
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Xavian-Anderson Macpherson 2008-05-22 07:44:30 UTC]

I have python compiled with Tk support, and this package still won't install.

 * You need to recompile python with Tkinter support.
 * Try adding: 'dev-lang/python tk'
 * in to /etc/portage/package.use

 * 
 * ERROR: media-gfx/skencil-0.6.18_pre20080519 failed.
 * Call stack:
 *                           ebuild.sh, line   49:  Called pkg_setup
 *   skencil-0.6.18_pre20080519.ebuild, line   23:  Called python_tkinter_exists
 *                       python.eclass, line  102:  Called die
 * The specific snippet of code:
 *   		die "missing tkinter support with installed python"
 *  The die message:
 *   missing tkinter support with installed python


I've done exactly as suggested here (even though the USE flag was already set), and the result is the same.

 * You need to recompile python with Tkinter support.
 * Try adding: 'dev-lang/python tk'
 * in to /etc/portage/package.use
