Could you describe your current setup? Eg Mac OS X version, 'uname -a', GCC version, XCode version, Intel/PPC, and so on. Could you also attach a build log obtained with "port -dv install py-tkinter"? Thanks.

port -dv install py-tkinter

My guess: you have installed XFree86 from MacPorts, then something broke during Tk's build, and you haven't got your copy of ${prefix}/include/tk.h, and py-tkinter fails.

[pmq@…]

Oops, saw your mail on the MP-users ML. OK so you have tk.h, but you installed XFree86 from MacPorts. You should deinstall that, and use Apple's X11, which is on an Apple install media somewhere (X11*.pkg).

[aurelien.dehay@…]

but tk depends on XFree86, I can't uninstall XFree86:

ordinateur-de-aurelien-dehay:/Users/aurelien root# port uninstall XFree86 ---> Unable to uninstall XFree86 4.5.0_2, the following ports depend on it: ---> tk

[markd@…]

This is ancient but tk should be uninstalled, then Xfree86, and then install X11 according to the instructions on the wiki under InstallingMacPorts.
