Hi all,
I have a very newby question.
I'm using a computer with Ubuntu Karmic Koala.
The Ubuntu has python 2.6 installed by default, and this default installation includes tkinter.
However, I'm using a platform (NuPIC) that needs Python 2.5. This I had to install manually in /usr/local.
Unfortunately, the manually installed version that I need doesn't seem to be able to find the tkinter libraries.
I have tried with "sudo apt-get install python2.5-tk" but it doesn't install it as it notices there is a newer version already.
The error message that I get is:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 38, in <module>
import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk
ImportError: No module named _tkinter
Any help figuring this out is very much appreciated!!
Best regards,
Noelia
