I have just upgraded my tcl/tk to 8.4 on my linux
system. Now I have two sets of tcl/tk, the old one
(8.3) is installed under /usr, and the new one (8.4) is
installed under /usr/local. I also upgraded to Python
2.4.1. Compiling Python went fine. It found the new
tcl/tk correctly to build _tkinter.so. However it broke
on trying to import, telling me that it could not find
libtk84.so, even though it found it to build the
_tkinter.so. Creating symbolic links under /usr/lib to
libtk and libtcl solved the problem. It seems to me
that import was confused and did not search
/usr/local/lib. I use bash. Maybe I need to set some
environmental variable?

maybe running ldconfig, or changing /etc/ld.so.conf would have helped.
I'd say close this bug report.
