new install, now cant import tkinter was created by owhite
Folks,
I followed this tutorial and it worked fine with mint 19:
gnipsel.com/linuxcnc/uspace/linuxmint19-emc.html
when i installed that, I used build 2.7, it worked fine. I get this from -v
LINUXCNC - 2.7.15
Then when I wanted to install the master, 2.9pre, and I encountered a problem.
There were residual .deb files in my home area, so I removed all those. Then I ran all commands on the mint 19 install page up to:
$ debuild -uc -us
and installed the .deb files, now I'm getting this from
so that looked like good news but when I run linuxcnc and try to start any of the sims I get:
any thoughts?

It was not meant to fix it, it is a much easier way to install on Mint.

Could be something to do with the Python3 work being done on master, I would stick with 2.8 at this stage unless there is something specific you need from master.

To be fair Python3, is stilla work in progress for LInuxcnc and a lot of PR's were pushed to master bracnh over the last few days.... It would be best to log an issue in git hub.
