Perfect: The package will be updated that way. Thanks for the feedback.

You can use for the moment the draft I have in the sources local and perhaps give feedback about its integration:

Thanks for the reply - I thought I was missing some package but couldn't figure out which one.
Anyway, I only needed tk support in python because I was trying to run a kakuro game that required it which can be found on this website (and a PKGBUILD is available in the AUR):
http://pzl.org.uk/
I found another kakuro game, one which depends on Qt4 libraries, and I managed to compile it successfully:

Hey,

for the moment the current python-version has no tk-support implemented. We know about this for sure and I have tried to review this some time ago. But until now the focus was more into have the packages running stable and rock-solid. If you like to support me here within to make that possible for version 0.4.5? I would be happy to include this.

What this means: I would add tk-support with the next builds, but this needs testing for sure.

It seems to be part of python but when I run "python -m tkinter" I get this error:

$ python -m tkinter
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/runpy.py", line 185, in _run_module_as_main
    mod_name, mod_spec, code = _get_module_details(mod_name, _Error)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/runpy.py", line 144, in _get_module_details
    return _get_module_details(pkg_main_name, error)

  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/tkinter/__init__.py", line 36, in 
    import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_tkinter'

I have tk installed. Do I need to install anything else?
