Ronald: According to a page (which I cannot find, E. Paine should know) Centos 7 has the oldest tcl among current *nix distributions. https://centos.pkgs.org/7/centos-x86_64/tcl-8.5.13-8.el7.x86_64.rpm.html says it is 8.5.13, which is what I remember from the comparison page. Serhiy: IDLE has required TkVersion >= 8.5 for some years (currently top of pyshell.py). Does the _tkinter.c line #error "Tk older than 8.5.12 not supported" translate into an ImportError (which is already caught). I never worried about someone trying to import 8.3 or before, but Apple's 8.5.9 is possible. Is there any reason that IDLE might someday require 8.6 before tkinter does? ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46996> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
