I am trying to get Tkinter to work with my Python build.
I've scoured usenet(comp.lang.Python) and google and there's
information that's helpful but I just can't seam to get it completely
right. I tried many of the suggestion, but nothing seems to work
My setup is Fedora Core 6 [my yum is also broken. (sigh. yes, I know
I should upgrade)]
I've download Tcl/Tk from Active State and installed it here:
/usr/ActiveTcl-8.5
My python to build is in this directory:
/home/tomzam/mylib6/Python-2.6.2
I removed the comment symbol (#) from the line:
_tkinter _tkinter.c tkappinit.c -DWITH_APPINIT \
in the Modules/Setup
so the lines in the Setup file look like this:
# *** Always uncomment this (leave the leading underscore in!):
_tkinter _tkinter.c tkappinit.c -DWITH_APPINIT \
# *** Uncomment and edit to reflect where your Tcl/Tk libraries are:
-L/usr/ActiveTcl-8.5/lib/tk8.5 \
# *** Uncomment and edit to reflect where your Tcl/Tk headers are:
-I/usr/ActiveTcl-8.5/include/tcl8.5 \
when I run ./configure in /home/tomzam/mylib6/Python-2.6.2 everything
looks
right but then I try running make in /home/tomzam/mylib6/Python-2.6.2
There are errors, but since there is many of them:
here is a cut out of the _tkinter errors:
libpython2.6.a(_tkinter.o): In function `Tkapp_CallProc':
/home/tomzam/mylib6/Python-2.6.2/./Modules/_tkinter.c:1263: undefined

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [python] Error 1
But since they are all undefined references - I feel I'm pretty close
to a solution.
Can you help me the rest of the way?
I'm trying to make tkinter work with my local Python install,
any help will be appreciated!
Thank in advance,
