Hi All, This is my first post, so I apologize in advance for any etiquette violations.
I am interested in learning Python, and to that end, I undertook to upgrade my current version of Python 2.5 (available via openSUSE repositories and YaST) to Python 2.6. I have Python 2.6 running (compiled from source [I'm not a total bonehead]) but idle gives me the following when I invoke it in bash: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> idle Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/idle", line 3, in <module> from idlelib.PyShell import main File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 14, in <module> import macosxSupport File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/idlelib/macosxSupport.py", line 6, in <module> import Tkinter File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 39, in <module> import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk ImportError: No module named _tkinter [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> I thought of unistalling and reinstalling (using YaST) the associated Python packages to make them aware of the version change, but the Idle package says it requires Python 2.5.2, nothing more or less, so I didn't attempt it. Thanks in advance for your patience. Dan -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Science is what we have learned about how not to fool ourselves about the way the world is. - Richard Feynman
