Python, bundled w/Porteus is outdated!

I need to download the most recent release of Python 3. Please provide proper indexing to
get Python 3/IDE installed and functional on Porteus, thanks.

I have tried this 3.2.3 module, but there is a SNAG w/IDLE the Python IDE built with the tkinter GUI toolkit:

• Password:
  root@porteus:/home/guest# idle3
  ** IDLE can't import Tkinter. Your Python may not be configured for Tk. **
  root@porteus:/home/guest#
