#31996: ipython pylab tcl can't find correct tk version ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: marshall.perrin@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: | Port: tcl, ipython, tk ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ I'm trying to run ipython with the TkAgg backend, and I immediately get an error upon startup about its not being able to find the correct tk version (and yet that version is indeed installed). The key error message is `/opt/local/lib/tk8.5/tk.tcl: version conflict for package "Tk": have 8.5.7, need exactly 8.5.11 version conflict for package "Tk": have 8.5.7, need exactly 8.5.11`. This used to work perfectly on this machine with Tcl 8.5.9 & earlier but has apparently been broken during recent version upgrades? Running wish appears to work fine (starts up with no error message), but starting ipython and trying to access any Tk widgets fails this way: {{{ mperrin@prometheus ~ > \ipython --pylab Python 2.7.2 (default, Nov 6 2011, 11:02:11) Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
