adding tkinter support on an existing python installation

'import _tkinter' fails on my system. I wanted to enable tk support. I do
have tk and tk-devel installed (but they weren't around when we installed
python). What's the best way to get these modules into python? I hope I do
not have to reinstall python itself? Or do I?
