OK, I downloaded tcl8.4.8 and tk8.4.8. They are now installed. Back to python2.4 make. It now bombs at:
gcc -pthread -shared build/temp.linux-i686-2.4/_tkinter.o build/temp.linux-i686-2.4/tkappinit.o -L/usr/X11R6/lib64 -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/local/lib -ltk8.4 -ltcl8.4 -lX11 -o build/lib.linux-i686-2.4/_tkinter.so *** WARNING: renaming "_tkinter" since importing it failed: libtk8.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory running build_scripts
Here's what I don't get:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/Python-2.4# ls -l /usr/local/lib/libtk8.4.so -rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 893866 2004-12-02 15:28 /usr/local/lib/libtk8.4.so
The library is there but gcc claims that it isn't. Any suggestions?
Is /usr/local/lib in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable? It needs to be in the compiler options for the compilation phase, but then you have to put it in $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to be able to import the module.
