Where are your libtcl and libtk files?

torro[~/tmp/firefox] ls /usr/lib/libtcl
libtcl8.4.so* libtclstub8.4.a libtclx8.4.so* torro[~/tmp/firefox] ls /usr/lib/libtk
libtk8.4.so* libtkstub8.4.a

The function is not working. I print the test and another Suse mystery appeared...

python setup.py install
False /usr/share/tcl/tcl8.4/../../include
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 229, in ?
    build_tkagg(ext_modules, packages, NUMERIX)
  File "/home/humufr/matplotlib/matplotlib/setupext.py", line 570, in build_tkagg
    add_tk_flags(module) # do this first
  File "/home/humufr/matplotlib/matplotlib/setupext.py", line 495, in add_tk_flags
    module.include_dirs.extend([o.tcl_inc, o.tk_inc])
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'tcl_inc'

The result of the test to contourn Suse problem:

print os.path.exists(o.tcl_inc),o.tcl_inc

False /usr/share/tcl/tcl8.4/../../include

And I checked the directory:

torro[~/tmp/firefox] ls /usr/share/tcl/tcl8.4/../../include
ls: /usr/share/tcl/tcl8.4/../../include: No such file or directory

N.
