[New-bugs-announce] [issue12992] Python build finished, but the necessary bits to build these modules were not found: _tkinter

[Wong Wah Meng]

New submission from Wong Wah Meng <wahmeng at freescale.com>:

Hello there,

I am building python on HP-UX 11.31 (Itanium ia64). I would like to utilize the _tkinter module in my application however I failed to build it. I think this module requires additional tcl + tk source code placed into certain directory and the configure will do the build accordingly. Can someone let me know what files are needed and where should I place them in terms of directory structure, so that I can build python with that built-in module successfully? Thanks!

(PS: I am able to build tcl tk 8.5.9 successfully on the same box however I am not sure how to link that piece of work into python build)
