Description

I cannot seem to get any python to accept the +tk variant.

looking at the actual package, I think this was something that was only half edited out?

  1. The variant still exists and two dependencies are incorporated if this variant is true.
  2. A commented out testing suite since an X window is needed for their tests.

I couldn't figure out much beyond that though, in #2065 it was stated that others aren't having any trouble with tk and python.
