[gentoo-user] tcltk weird behaviour

["Ghaith Hachem" <blacksadness@gmail.com>]

hello
i've recently noticed several apps failing to start

$ amsn
Application initialization failed: this isn't a Tk applicationunknown
color name "Black"
Error in startup script: this isn't a Tk applicationunknown color name "Black"
    (default value for "-highlightcolor" in widget ".")
    invoked from within
"load /usr/lib/tk8.4/../libtk8.4.so Tk"
    ("package ifneeded" script)
    invoked from within
"package require Tk"
    (file "/usr/bin/amsn" line 46)


$ pysol

  File "/usr/games/lib/pysol/pysol.py", line 121, in ?
    sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
  File "/usr/games/lib/pysol/main.py", line 424, in main
    r = pysol_main(args)
  File "/usr/games/lib/pysol/main.py", line 367, in pysol_main
    r = pysol_init(app, args)

    top = MfxRoot(className=PACKAGE)
  File "/usr/games/lib/pysol/tk/tkwrap.py", line 75, in __init__
    apply(Tkinter.Tk.__init__, (self,), kw)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1569, in __init__
    self.tk = _tkinter.create(screenName, baseName, className,
interactive, wantobjects, useTk, sync, use)
__main__.TclError: this isn't a Tk applicationunknown color name "Black"




i don't know when it happened i noticed this 2 days ago i rememrged
python with tcltk useflag it didnt' seem to solve anything



i'm also having problems starting Mercury i think it's irrelated but i
thought i'd post it maybe there's sth i missed

$ Mercury/Mercury

/opt/blackdown-jre-1.4.2.03/bin/java: error while loading shared

Note the mercury isnt' installed with portage if that would matter



$ emerge -pv python tcl tk

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
