Script not working about eagle2kicad HOT 7 CLOSED

What version of python are you running. Tkinter is the GUI library and is
built into the default python 3.2 interpreter. Can you try using the
command line options on start.py?

Hi!
I'm trying to use this, what seems to be a very powerful tool but is not
working:

~/Eagle2Kicad$ python Start.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Start.py", line 16, in
from tkinter import Tk,Frame,Label,Button,RIDGE,BOTH,X
ImportError: No module named tkinter

besides that, any attempt to run it in a different way does not work
either:

Board$ python Board.py
Input Filename: input
Output Filename: output.brd
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Board.py", line 180, in
outFileName=input("Output Filename: ")
File "", line 1, in
NameError: name 'output' is not defined

I think you may be running python 2.#. These scripts will only work with python 3.0+.

Thanks :D ... it did launch the program but even though I already updated python, now is giving me some other errors:

Conversion Failed

OverflowError: cannot convert float infinity to integer

I already checked the input file format as the new one for eagle v6.

I think I fixed this issue in the latest version, can you try again?

This Looks like the same error as in issue #6 . However since his fix was to update and you have already done that i added some code which I think will fix the issue. Can you check ou the newest version and confirm?

From a fresh install on Ubuntu Studio I had the original issue ajgallegog mentions, but that is just because I didn't have tkinter. My solution was to doublecheck I had python3, which I already did with sudo apt-get install python3 and then sudo apt-get install python3-tk and gui popped up fine after that.
