Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment: I reproduced the error on installed 2.7.14, running tk 8.5.18.
I ran TkinterCrash3-2-2.py 15 times on 64-bit Win10, installed x64 3.6.5, with tk 8.6.8, and experienced no crashes. I ran it another 10 times with 32-bit repository 3.8 debug and no crashes. My conclusion: this is at least partly a tcl/tk issue fixed in current tcl/tk. "this would affect any branch if built with nonthreaded Tcl." If python is delivered (on Windows and Mac) with 'threaded tcl' and rebuilding with 'nonthreaded tcl' causes a problem with tkinter, then one should not do that. In practice, essentially no one does so. Serhiy, do you know what type of tcl/tk is distributed on Linux? ---------- nosy: -__Vano, gvanrossum _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33257> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
