You could also try installing tcl/tk into sage's copy of python, e.g. with sage -python path/to/tk/setup.py install . Trying to let the Sage Python see the system Python's libraries may result in binary incompatibilities (the versions and flags used to compile them must match, which they probably don't). - Robert --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
