Alex Rodriguez alej...@gmail.com added the comment: I downloaded python-2.7.1-macosx10.6.dmg file and tested if Tkinter and IDLE still have same issue reported here and I did not find anymore this issue. I was able to launch IDLE and create a Tkinter GUI.

[issue9227] can't import Tkinter / use IDLE after installing Python 2.7 on Mac OS X
Ned Deily n...@acm.org added the comment: For the record, after some discussion at EuroPython and on the Pythonmac-SIG mailing list (thread starting here: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythonmac-sig/2010-July/022467.html), the current plan is to make the 64-bit installer variant support OS 10.6 (and above) and 2-way Intel (i386, x86_64). That way the installer can be linked with the 10.6 Tk 8.5 which supports both 32- and 64-bit and avoids the unnecessary compilation for PPC arch. Ronald, since it might be a while until a 2.7.1 release comes out, would it be possible to make available a new vanilla 2.7 installer to replace or supplement (this time only) the original 64-bit one? -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9227 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Danielle Dows yandapa...@gmail.com added the comment: I upgraded my working python from 2.5.1 (original install) to 2.7 (for macosx10.5) and got this: ** IDLE can't import Tkinter. Your Python may not be configured for Tk. ** I tried installing the applications, with no change. I tried the macosx10.3 version, same result. Installed the applications manually, same result. I downloaded 2.6.5 and again, same result. My next attempt will be the 2.5.5 version, but I do not expect and different result. I am using Leopard 10.5.8 with all software up to date.

Ned Deily n...@acm.org added the comment: @Danielle: Are you sure you are launching the correct IDLE? In a terminal window, enter the following shell commands and report the output: cd /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/ file lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_tkinter.so otool -L lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_tkinter.so bin/idle2.7 That last should launch idle for 2.7.

Ned Deily n...@acm.org added the comment: @Sarth: Odd, works for me. Using the standard GUI installer on a 64-bit-capable machine running 10.6.4, I first installed the 10.5 2.7 metapackage and verified that both IDLE.app and /usr/local/bin/idle2.7 fail. Then, even without manually deleting anything, I installed the 10.3 2.7 metapackage and now both work. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9227 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Michael Foord mich...@voidspace.org.uk added the comment: I don't particularly mind what the fix is - but at the moment users can download and install Python from a python.org installer and then have an (apparently) non functioning IDLE and Tkinter. At the very least we should advise users to install the 32bit only binary (which presumably works - I should try it) unless they *need* the 64 bit Python. (And also let them know that installing the 64 bit version means that Tkinter / IDLE doesn't work on Snow Leopard.) -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9227 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Michael Foord mich...@voidspace.org.uk added the comment: Mark Dickinson confirms the problem and offers this diagnosis: The python.org binary links to Tcl 8.4 (which doesn't seem to have a 64-bit version).

[issue9227] can't import Tkinter / use IDLE after installing Python 2.7 on Mac OS X
Ronald Oussoren ronaldousso...@mac.com added the comment: Mark nails the issue: there is no 64-bit version of Tk on OSX 10.5. I'm -1 on creating a 10.6 specific installer, two installers is confusing enough. IDLE.app somewhat works because the Makefile makes sure it gets started using a 32-bit version of the interpreter (which is a quick workaround: 'arch -i386 python2.7' starts python in 32-bit mode an Tkinter is available there) I can't find the specific issue right now, but did file a feature request a while back for a patch that allows us to ship copies of _tkinter linked to Tk 8.4 and Tk 8.5 while having a wrapper that loads the right one. I am however slowly moving towards liking to ship a newer version of Tk with Python. That would have to be a minimal copy of the Tcl/Tk frameworks, and would definitely require feedback from people that actually use Tkinter. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9227 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
