Tkinter._test() problem

[Per Kistler]

Hi All

I installed py1.5.2 with tcl/tk.8.1 on SuSE6.1 Linux.

After:

import Tkinter
Tkinter._test()

I get the following error, which I do not unerstand:

-----cut
>>python
Python 1.5.2 (#4, Jul  4 1999, 12:25:56)  [GCC egcs-2.91.66 19990314

>>> import Tkinter
>>> Tkinter._test()
Traceback (innermost last):

    root = Tk()
  File "/per/lib/python1.5/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 886, in __init__
    self.tk = _tkinter.create(screenName, baseName, className)
TclError: Can't find a usable init.tcl in the following directories:

This probably means that Tcl wasn't installed properly.
----cut

It seems, that python looks in some directories, which it does not
have. What do I have to do?

Thanks, Per.
