Question

Answer 1

python3-tk does not have any problem with Python 3.5 or higher, you may have an outdated source list.

sudo apt-get update

you may check if is not your source list is outdated or not, use the following link to update your source list

Answer 2

rasekh, I'd add that if you're on Ubuntu, after doing apt-get update, just install by issuing

sudo apt-get install python3-tk 

That is basically what happens in this thread -albeit for Centos-. Good luck
