[issue8798] tkinter build variants on OSX

[Ronald Oussoren]

Ronald Oussoren <ronaldoussoren at mac.com> added the comment:

We talked about this at the language summit at EuroPython 2010. We'll resolve the installer issue by moving the 64-bit capable installer to Tk 8.5 (with a minimal OSX version of 10.6). 

The 32-bit installer will still use Tk 8.4 because it needs to run on OSX 10.3.9 and later, and that's they only version of Tk that is available everywhere as part of a system install.

I'm closing this issue because the proposed mechanism would only be truly useful as part of the OSX installer and that won't happen.

resolution:  -> wont fix
