Verify that libtk8.5.so exists in /usr/local/lib and verify you have read permission. You could try to write a Tk C program (or find one) and try building that with cc -L/usr/X11/lib -L/usr/local/lib -ltk8.5 -ltcl8.5 -lX11 . If that works then your Tk libraries are installed properly and something is wonky with your Python build. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
