The python3-tkinter package is a sub package of the python3 source package, which includes platform-python. They are versioned together, so you can’t upgrade one without needing the updates for the other.

Since python3-tkinter is in AppStream, maybe you don’t have that enabled? You need the 8Stream repo, not the one for base 8.

I'm not sure what happened, but today I'm able to install python3-idle and python3-tkinter, and I didn't have to downgrade platform-python. The correct versions came through.

I don't know what was different yesterday, but today it's working.

Thanks.
