Currently Windows buildbots use old versions of Tcl/Tk. These versions contain bugs (for example see issue20560). Versions mentioned in Tools/buildbot/external-common.bat: On 2.7: 8.5.2.1/8.5.2.0 On 3.3: 8.5.11.0 On 3.4: 8.6.1.0 Some buildbots even use beta version of 8.6 (I needed write workaround in testsuite for behavior differences). Recent Tcl/Tk versions: Tcl/Tk 8.6.1 Sep 20, 2013 Tcl/Tk 8.5.15 Sep 18, 2013 Tcl/Tk 8.4.20 Jun 1, 2013 Perhaps it is time to update Tcl/Tk to recent versions? |

I think the Windows buildbots should use the version delivered with the installer. While sticking with one tcl/tk version for one 18 to 24 month cycle is ok, perhaps we should consider updating the version delivered with 2.7. The features exposed by tkinter could remain stable even if new features are added to tcl/tk in micro releases. On linux, a program written for Python x.y may have to work with multiple tcl/tk versions. |

I think this is done through the "external" SVN project: http://svn.python.org/projects/external/ |
