Re: adding tkinter support on an existing python installation

Unless you want to install from source you just have to install the
corresponding package for Tkinter. On Ubuntu that's python-tk, but the
name may be distribution-dependent.

Thanks Peter! The package name for me was simply tkinter. 'yum install
tkinter' worked but this only allows me to import tkinter on my older
python installation (done via yum). So I might have to go for a from source
install after all? (I started a new thread on this issue)
