Terry J. Reedy added the comment:
I tried to run the currently unnecessary Mac 'darwin' check in 2.7 with
if sys.platform == 'darwin':
from lib-tk.test.runtktests import check_tk_availability
# tkinter.test.suppport in 3.x
try:
check_tk_availability()
except unittest.SkipTest:
raise tk.TclError
This fails because 'lib-tk' is not a legal module name. There are workarounds
in test/test_tk.py and test_ttk_guionly, but I decided not to bother with them
now because I would rather work on moving the function to test.support (and
perhaps the package could be given a legal name). If, before that is done,
someone adds a Mac buildbot that will not run gui tests but requests that they
be run anyway, the above could be added with the different changes needed for
2.7 and 3.x.
