[New-bugs-announce] [issue3922] 3.0rc1 missing tk lib in sys.path?

[Jean-Michel Fauth]

New submission from Jean-Michel Fauth <wxjmfauth at gmail.com>:

3.0rc1: When toying and attempting to import the scrolledtext module, I
noticed the tkinter library path is no more by default included in the
sys.path.

Unfortunate omission or new Python 3.0 design?
