Extensions installed via the marketplace are configured in the same way as local extensions at the Python level so there shouldn’t be any differences there.

I didn’t realize we included and tkinter files, I’ll look into what’s pulling that in later.

I recommend trying to pull these packages with your local python install. (we use 3.8, you may want to use that temporarily to maximize the chances of this working).
