Tkinter apps can't be distributed on the macOS App Store

Bug report

Bug description:

If you use tkinter in your app, and package the app for distribution in the macOS App Store, the app will be rejected with a message to the effect that:

Guideline 2.5.1 - Performance - Software Requirements

Your app uses or references the following non-public or deprecated APIs:

Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/libtk8.6.dylib

Symbols:

• _NSWindowDidOrderOnScreenNotification

The use of non-public or deprecated APIs is not permitted on the App Store, as they can lead to a poor user experience should these APIs change and are otherwise not supported on Apple platforms.

(or similar).

This appears to be a known issue in Tk.

This ticket is mostly to log the issue as something that can affect macOS users; there's not much we can do to fix it until such time as Tk fixes the problem and releases the fix in a version that Python can incorporate into a release (or, I guess, Apple changes their App Store review policies).

CPython versions tested on:

3.14, 3.13, 3.12, 3.11, 3.10, 3.9, CPython main branch

Operating systems tested on:

macOS

このレポートでは CPython のファイルもテストも指定されていません。まずリンク先の Tk issue を読み、記載されている Python バージョン間で macOS App Store の却下を比較してください。完了となるには、Tk の修正がリリースされて CPython に取り込まれるか、Apple の審査ポリシーが変更される必要があります。この issue には、現在利用可能な CPython の修正はないと記載されています。
