Details

It's my firs bugreport, please be patient.

Description:
Launching idle without extra/tk installed returns an error:
$ idle
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/idle", line 3, in <module>
from idlelib.PyShell import main
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 14, in <module>
import macosxSupport
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/idlelib/macosxSupport.py", line 6, in <module>
import Tkinter
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 38, in <module>
import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk
ImportError: libtk8.5.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Installing extra/tk solves.


Additional info:
$ pacman -Qi python
Nome : python
Versione : 2.5.2-2


Steps to reproduce:
Launch /usr/bin/idle.

tk is an optional dependency for python package,
so nothing more than adding optdepends=('tk: needed for some tools') should be done
