easygui 98 error on Python - can't import tkinter

[hamdyaea]

I try to launch my python program then I have this error :

Traceback (most recent call last): File "multiquestions-scrum-quiz.py", line 26, in game_start = buttonbox(title=start_title,image=logo,msg=start_msg,choices=play) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/easygui/boxes/button_box.py", line 102, in buttonbox callback=callback) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/easygui/boxes/button_box.py", line 147, in init self.ui = GUItk(msg, title, choices, images, default_choice, cancel_choice, self.callback_ui) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/easygui/boxes/button_box.py", line 263, in init self.boxRoot = tk.Tk() File "/usr/lib/python3.6/tkinter/init.py", line 2017, in init self.tk = _tkinter.create(screenName, baseName, className, interactive, wantobjects, useTk, sync, use) _tkinter.TclError: unknown color name "BACKGROUND"

What Operating System are you using? If you are using Debian, could you try the steps outlined here:

$ xrdb -load /dev/null
$ xrdb -query

I don't think that this is an EasyGui bug, but rather a problem with getting default values for Tk GUI elements. If the above fails we can try an alternative approach to setting defaults.

I'm using archlinux and my Python is installed from Arch-Anywhere. After recompilation of python36 and a reboot everything works.

The problem is solved.

Excellent! Thanks for sharing details, and that the problem is now resolved.
