I think we need to add tcl and tk to the inputs, and add the corresponding "-I" and "-L" flags to the configure flags. The issue is that tk depends on Python (through libx11, which depends on libxcb, which depends on Python), so we end up with a circular dependency leading to what I reported in http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=20967 . I think we should: - rename the Python package to "python-without-tkinter" or "python-minimal" and use that as a dependency in xorg.scm; - define a "python" package that would inherit the "minimal Python" package and add the dependency on tcl/tk to it. WDYT ?
