Curious too, as the lib-tk diretory installed here: 
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-tk

 I note larryv@.... posted in reply "…I think you need to install py27-tkinter 
also."and that this seemed to work for johnsankey@, so I may try this, but as 
the Tkinter library is already installed, it seems an odd approach. If I can be 
patient I will wait a further response.

I tried a fresh port of python27, which seems only to have added a coppy of 
IDLE.app and Python Launcher.app in the Applications > MacPorts directory. 
Still no response from IDLE, and no Tkinter either.

I have temporarily returned the default setting to OSX python v2.6.1 Tkinter 
seems to be installed for this version, but no IDLE. 

Many thanks.

> If you want to stick with MacPorts, then IDLE is already included with the 
python27 port, and tkinter is in the py27-tkinter port. If they don’t work, 
please report the bugs to us.

It is included in the port, but is known not to work  because IDLE depends in 
py27-tkinter which depends on python.  See 
https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38746
https://trac.macports.org/ticket/42191
This defect was also discussed on this list back in January.
