    Hi,

    I'm trying to compile python 2.5 RC1 under opensuse
    10.1 on a 64-bit AMD athlon. Although the README says
    it will auto-detect tcl/tk, and setup tkinter
    appropriately, it doesn't. Among other things, this
    means idle can't use this python version. I have
    tcl/tk, the libraries, devel packages, anything that
    seemed relevant in YaST installed. I think the problem
    is my tcl/tk libs live in /usr/lib64. It seems, based
    on the file Modules/Setup generated by ./configure,
    that the python installer doesn't see these libs.

    From perusing the web there seems to be a fair amount
    of pain caused by /lib vs /lib64 dir names. In fact an
    older post to the forum identifies the same issue (just
    search for lib64 if this link is busted):

    http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1294959&group_id=5470&atid=105470

    It would be very nice if this were somehow handled
    automatically, or at least give detailed instructions
    in the README (search the doc for lib64 returns nothing).

    Cheers,
    David
