Hi,
I searched in bugzilla so I am asking here what is the place to report this.
Example:
$ ipython
...
In [1]: from Tkinter import *
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
exceptions.ImportError Traceback (most recent
call last)
/root/<ipython console>
/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-tk/Tkinter.py
36 if sys.platform == "win32":
37 import FixTk # Attempt to configure Tcl/Tk without requiring PATH
---> 38 import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for
Tk
39 tkinter = _tkinter # b/w compat for export
40 TclError = _tkinter.TclError
ImportError: libTix8.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory
The problem here is that tkinter requires libTix8.4.so that belongs to tix
# rpm -ql tix | grep .so
/usr/lib/Tix8.4/Console.tcl
/usr/lib/Tix8.4/libTix8.4.so
Yet in no place is ldconfig told to search for it, that is if I
add /usr/lib/Tix8.4 to /etc/ld.so.conf it works.
Have this been reported before? Where should I add this report? python,
tix, ...
I am reporting this since python-imaging does not build its tk interface due
to this. It works for FC-4 but not for FC-5 and devel.
Best regards,
