Well simply rebuilding it might not fix the problem.  It looks like
you have built both Python and VTK with the static Tcl/Tk libraries.
Maybe you should recompile both Python and VTK to use the shared
versions of Tcl/Tk.

For VTK make sure CMake is using the shared version. 

 TCL_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/usr/lib/libtcl8.3.so

 TK_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/usr/lib/libtk8.3.so

Or whatever appropriate version is on your system.

BTW, do the VTK Tcl/Tk examples work ok?

Hope this helps.
