I exported a file from Jupyter to a .py format. The code works fine on Jupyter itself, but when I try to run it directly from the command line I get the following error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3.5/tkinter/__init__.py", line 36, in <module>
import _tkinter
ImportError: No module named '_tkinter'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

raise ImportError(str(msg) + ', please install the python3-tk package')
Both python-tk and python3-tk are installed. I'm using Python 3.5.2 in my Jupyter code. I've seen this thread and many others about this problem, but I still can't figure it out. What puzzles me the most is that the code does run on Jupyter, but I can't run it on a terminal when I export it.
Could someone please point me in the right direction as to solve this issue? Thank you in advance.
