Hi

It worked for me in my build env after trying several things.

I did setup a new yocto some while ago and actually had the same 
problems again.

There is a patch in python about tkinter (03-fix-tkinter-detection.patch).

I removed that, did a fresh rebuild of python (-c clean) and did a 
rebuild of my image (as no new image was written by building my image 
after rebuilding python).

Either of these did work for me, maybe somebody knows exactly which step :-)
