Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com> added the comment: A patch to fix this issue would be appreciated. However, there is are two reasons why _tkinter is build for 32-bit architectures only:
1) Apple didn't ship a 64-bit Tk until OSX 10.6, and that is Tk 8.5 while earlier releases of the OS use Tk 8.4 2) Tk 8.5 on OSX 10.6 seems to break IDLE, see Issue6864 Issue8798 describes a way to get a build that works on OSX 10.5 or later and still supports 64-bit Tk (on OSX 10.6 or when the user has installed a local 64-bit copy of Tk 6.5). I don't have time to work in this myself, which is why the issue is not very detailed. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9045> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
