sys.path.append('/usr/lib/anaconda/textw')
sys.path.append('/usr/lib/anaconda/iw')
This makes it work, although it is messy in the others append other private
paths and anaconda needs to be thoroughly tested to be sure this doesn't break
anything.
This breaks the RHupdates mechanism. What needs to happen is that the /usr/lib/anaconda paths be inserted into sys.path after all the updates paths. I'm not sure what the "updates paths" consist of, but the code in the following
patch might be sufficient if I've guessed right. It seems a bit hacky, though.
A cleaner way to do this would be to make an anaconda module (either in
python_sitearch or as a subdirectory of %{_libdir}/anaconda) and put all the
code in there. Then the code will be properly namespaced and you'll be able to
write unambiguous import statements like::
from anaconda import dispatch

Patch to place /usr/lib/anaconda after RHUpdate paths in sys.path
Committed, with some slight modifications. Thanks for the patch. |

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/anaconda", line 904, in <module> anaconda.setDispatch() File "/usr/sbin/anaconda", line 484, in setDispatch self.dispatch = dispatch.Dispatcher(self) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Dispatcher' While attempting to use anaconda to build a chroot, it fails with this error while python-ruledispatch is installed. This is because the dispatch module provided by ruledispatch has a higher precedence than anaconda's dispatch in sys.path.
