Looks like they changed that recently - because it used to build it by default. Tkinter is now installed by x11-toolkits/py-tkinter. That's why I started building python from source. And since I'm building from source I can be more up-to-date then the ports distribution, and include pil, pmw, etc in the build. The current ports Python is 2.4.2. Do you have a newer version of Python? And pil/pmw and a lot of other things are already in the ports tree as separate ports. mike -- Mike Meyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
