I've also confirmed this one (by chance). I'm on ubuntu linux, and I am seeing
the problem in both 2.6 and 3.1, both using Tk 8.5. I don't see the problem on
my windows install (Vista, python 2.5, not sure of the Tk version right now).
But I did find a hack around this by explicitly creating and destroying a top
level window following the askdirectory() dialog. Try this snippet on
linux/unix, the call to askyesno() returns False always.
import tkFileDialog,tkMessageBox,Tkinter
theDirectory=tkFileDialog.askdirectory()
addDirectory=tkMessageBox.askyesno('a dialog','Add a directory?')
print addDirectory
But the following works fine:
import tkFileDialog,tkMessageBox,Tkinter
toplevel=Tkinter.Tk()
theDirectory=tkFileDialog.askdirectory()
toplevel.destroy()
addDirectory=tkMessageBox.askyesno('a dialog','Add a directory?')
print addDirectory
