When I double-click the IDLE icon in the MacPorts Python folder nothing happens
except that the following line gets written to console.
1/18/14 08:54:26.526 com.apple.launchd.peruser.502[185]:
(org.python.IDLE.129216[59547]) Exited with code: 1
port installed python* yields
python27 @2.7.6_0 (active)
python_select @0.3_3 (active)
I’m not even sure how IDLE got there let alone what to reinstall to fix it or
what to file a ticket against. I’ve tried the following.
locate org.python.IDLE
/private/var/db/BootCaches/07AF3A6E-E096-404E-B37E-A310F2681E39/app.org.python.IDLE.playlist
port provides
/private/var/db/BootCaches/07AF3A6E-E096-404E-B37E-A310F2681E39/app.org.python.IDLE.playlist
/private/var/db/BootCaches/07AF3A6E-E096-404E-B37E-A310F2681E39/app.org.python.IDLE.playlist
is not provided by a MacPorts port.
OK it did come from MacPorts python.
port contents python27 | grep IDLE
/Applications/MacPorts/Python 2.7/IDLE.app/Contents/Info.plist
/Applications/MacPorts/Python 2.7/IDLE.app/Contents/MacOS/IDLE

Ahah. Let’s try showing the contents and clicking on the IDLE terminal command
there. That yields the following.
/Applications/MacPorts/Python\ 2.7/IDLE.app/Contents/MacOS/IDLE ; exit;
Traceback (most recent call last):

I just did port upgrade last night and this is still happening. I’m not sure
why the console error seems to point to someplace other than the macports
files. But the macports command also has errors if I run it directly from the
command line.
I found this which may be relevant.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5459444/tkinter-python-may-not-be-configured-for-tk
"If it fails with "No module named _tkinter", your Python configuration needs
to be modified to include this module (which is an extension module implemented
in C). Do not edit Modules/Setup (it is out of date). You may have to install
Tcl and Tk (when using RPM, install the -devel RPMs as well) and/or edit the
setup.py script to point to the right locations where Tcl/Tk is installed. If
you install Tcl/Tk in the default locations, simply rerunning "make" should
build the _tkinter extension.”
This doesn’t really make sense to me though because I thought Macports itself
used Tcl so wouldn’t Tcl/Tk be installed already?
