Public bug reported:
Installing Kubuntu Hardy from the live CD does not install python-tk.
This means that programs written assuming that tk is automatically included
with python, and which worked, say on a standard Feisty install, will now fail
to start and the average user will not understand why.
Many developers, myself included, chose tk partly because it has always been
installed with python, but now, on Hardy, our programs appear broken.
Please make python-tk part of all future standard installs.
I suspect this is not the correct place to report this but I've looked hard for
somewhere better - sorry but I thought you people would care and might be able
to get something done to change things.
