Hi Nat, It's strange that your Tkinter got built without a typical version string. For me: In [1]: import Tkinter In [2]: Tkinter.__version__ Out[2]: '$Revision: 73770 $' In [3]: Tkinter.__version__.split()[-2] Out[3]: '73770' > I don't need or want Tkinter support either in Python or in matplotlib, but > it appears to be impossible to disable Tkinter when compiling Python.

I'm not sure about Python, but for matplotlib, just add these two lines to your setup.cfg (or create one with these two lines in it): [gui_support] tkagg = False You can read the setup.cfg.template for a full explanation (and other install options available to you).A best, -- Paul Ivanov 314 address only used for lists, off-list direct email at: http://pirsquared.org | GPG/PGP key id: 0x0F3E28F7
