Description Nils Philippsen 2002-03-02 13:31:46 UTC
Description of Problem:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

python2-2.2-10

How Reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install python2 on a machine with tkinter

Actual Results:

file conflicts

Expected Results:

python2 replaces tkinter -> python2 should obsolete tkinter

Comment 1 Trond Eivind Glomsrxd 2002-03-18 22:22:04 UTC
python2-2.2-11 has a separate tkinter2 package which does not conflict.

Comment 2 Nils Philippsen 2002-03-19 08:44:35 UTC
Maybe tkinter2 should obsolete tkinter then? Would make manual upgrades more
seamless.

Comment 3 Trond Eivind Glomsrxd 2002-03-19 18:01:00 UTC
Of course not. Python 1.5 w/tkinter is still the primary python.
