It's probably not a Python bug but a Tcl/Tk bug.
It would be worth asking about it on a Tcl/Tk forum - or maybe even the Tkinter list.

   File "c:\python27\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py", line 1444, in yview
     res = self.tk.call(self._w, 'yview', *args)
TclError: expected floating-point number but got "0,0033"

Note that this error comes from Tcl not Python.

Tcl/Tk often evaluates strings as a float but may well be expecting a decimal period rather than a comma in the string. (It really just uses the float as an encoding for two integers!)

Can you hard code the period in your code? Or trap the string and do a replace() to convert it before it calls the Tkinter code?

On the other hand it could just be that it expects a literal float and not a string representation of the same... With no sight of the original Python code it's hard to say. But Tk uses string floats often enough that I suspect that it is a Tcl/Tk issue.
