Dear UrUtusUbU:

I have tried your 3.2.3 module, but IDLE3, the Python IDE built with the tkinter GUI toolkit, traps this error:

• # idle3
  ** IDLE can't import Tkinter. Your Python may not be configured for Tk. **
  #

Please confirm ASAP.

hello

Dear willard
I do not know about that you speak, the only tk support that i know is for perl not for python,
i looking for this option compiling python 3 and it does not exist, or i am more blind than believed,

i use python 2.6.8 like resident python, and 2.7 and 3.x temporarily when some program needs it, and I have not problems,
the official python version of porteus, or slackware 13.37, is 2.6.x version, others versions can give some configuration problems,

that is what you want to use that it you does not work??
please explain better the problem,
or if you know much more that i, compile it yourself, is only 5 min.

I read this but i do not find out. http://wiki.python.org/moin/TkInter
I hope that it should serve you for something.

Dear UrUtusUbU:
There are actually two modules needed besides Python3, to launch the IDE for Python3:
1) idle3
2) python3-tk

HTH

PS. Just confirmed on Ubuntu 12.04

** IDLE can't import Tkinter. Your Python may not be configured for Tk. **

cannot you configure it?
must it be configurated with the compilation?
I not use that, i cant help you sorry.

why you want to launch the IDE for Python3 in porteus?

Hello UrUtusUbU,

Looking at the internet, the first link that I got for a slackware 14.0 download of python 2.7.4 was your thread. This is great!

I have tried you python-2.7.3.xzm to replace Quax or slax 1188-python.xzm for the system-config-printer package assembly:
http://forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php? ... 635#p13635

For one reason or another, it could not act as a replacement. Using slackyd -g once loaded, I know that 1188-python is python-2.7.3-x86_64-2.txz, and finally found that package available at:
http://pkgs.org/slackware-14.0/slackwar ... /download/

Could there be essential missing libraries?

Thanks

Multiple versions of the same software on the same topic is not recommended.

Hello Hamza,

I appreciate very much UrUtusUbU's effort to provide us with a functional version of python 2.7.3.

I am not trying to plug another version of the same software. I would be happy to conclude that UrUtusUbU version of Python 2.7.3 is suitable for any use and particularly for my own use. In fact, I was looking for a functional version of python 2.7.3 and realized that it did not work for my use. If I add to that the comments of willard, it might be that the presented version here in this thread does not work for both willard and my use, and maybe for other persons use.

I had to back up my position in providing some fact to hold the hypothesis that UrUtusUbU's version of python 2.7.3 seemed problematic. I would hope that I am wrong. I imagine that python could be non-functional as much as a given version of firefox could be non-functional or partially functional. One has to present some facts or some comparison to say that a given package seems to have some problem.

For one reason or another python 2.7.3 for slackware is still hard to find thru googling. Try it. I never search porteus but only search the internet with keywords:
python 2.7.3 slackware download

This porteus thread of UrUtusUbU is in the first citation. Pkgs.org has not even refered the package yet for x86-64 architecture.

You would hope that the package is functional. This would be positive publicity for porteus as a slackware distribution.


I am ready to remove my interventions if we get a functional package. Do you see what I mean?

I'm not against publishing old versions of a software. Mixing many versions is against forum rules as per rule "one subject per topic".

hi
this module and the other pythons are compiled in porteus 1.2 slackware 13.37 for porteus 1.2, maybe dont work very well in new porteus 2.0 slackware 14, I have not proved it but he was thinking me to compile the new one in porteus 2.0,
also willard said that they were not compiled well that anything was absent,
I believe that the best option so that I you should work is to compile one in your machine, with your hardware, dependencies, etc,
here you can get all versions sources also 3.3.0 and 2.7.4 rc1:
http://www.python.org/download/releases/
and here a good instructions for python 2.7.3 also with source and patch:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/vi ... thon2.html
when it is compiled you can put a lot of more options for what your need, they are in the help of the configure,

Code: Select all

./configure --help

I hope that it should be useful to you

@hamza this pythons not are old soft and mixers versions, are diferents, python is like that,
I preferred putting all active versions in 1 post than in 3, I believe that there are better and more controlled all together that separated, it is an alone python not 10 versions of different firefox, python is triple xD

About Pythons:
I have been using http://www.mediafire.com/file/m5mbbo4gd ... 3-i486.xzm, my module of Python 2.7.3 with success. I eliminated old versions totally. It was not an easy task, for you will have to change for instance pygtk to 2.7.3 and all other py-related (py-cairo-1.10.0, PyQt-4.10, pyKDE4-4.10, etc) accordingly.

The "3" series of Python is not compatible with old applications already compiled, at least. It can be used in new stuff. Do as I say and you won't miss it! 8)
