Cannot import tkinter after installing Python 3 with pyenv

Question

I got problems with importing tkinter after installing Python version 3.4.2 with pyenv. My system Python is version 2.7.6. I am using Ubuntu 14.04.

Answer 1

This problem seems to be solved now using the approach described in this post:

• First uninstall Python 3.4.2 : pyenv uninstall 3.4.2, then
• Run sudo apt-get install tk-dev
• And reinstall Python 3.4.2 : pyenv install 3.4.2
