Description Murray Cumming 2011-05-11 09:39:26 UTC

In Fedora 15 (currently beta), Glom does not start. It shows the "gda Python Module Not Installed" dialog and stops.

The gnome-python2-gda module is installed, but running Glom from the terminal suggest that there is a problem with gnome-python2-gda:

  boost::python::import() failed while importing module: gda
  traceback = 0
  Glom: Python Error:
  ImportError: could not import gobject (could not find _PyGObject_API object)

  Glom: A python import of a module failed: gda

Comment 1 Haïkel Guémar 2011-05-11 11:01:00 UTC

it works fine on my F15 boxes, could you provide me installed version of glom, libgda and gnome-python2-gda ?
$ rpm -qi glom

Comment 2 Murray Cumming 2011-05-11 11:21:07 UTC

This is on a completely fresh F15 install.

rpm -qi tells me:

glom is version: 1.18.1, release 1,fc15
libgda is version 4.2.5, release 1.fc15
gnome-python2-gda is version 2.25.3, release 22.fc15.

> gnome-python2-gda is version 2.25.3, release 22.fc15
Here's the problem, gnome-python2-gda update path is broken since F14 version is newer than F15's.
I did a scratch build of gnome-python2-gda f14 package for F15 (i had to disable gdl subpackage, though current version should not work), it should fix your issue

I reassigned the ticket to gnome-python2-extras maintainer but i'm still following it.
