From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; it-IT; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050524 Fedora/1.0.4-4 Firefox/1.0.4 Description of problem: Some pygtk2 mantainer has fought with rpm... Just try to run one the programs that depend on it. Let's take printconf-gui for example. if you run it as normal user and insert root password it's alright but try to login as root and run it (it's happens su'ing from a terminal too): Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/printconf-gui", line 7, in ? import queueTree File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 71, in ? import gtk File "/usr/src/build/535819-i386/install/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py", line 37, in ? RuntimeError: could not open display /usr/src/build/535819-i386/install??????????? has it been taken as RPM_BUILD_ROOT? all pygtk2 libraries contain that directory. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.0-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. login as root 2. run a program which is dependant from pygtk2 3. the program point to a wrong library location Additional info:
This error just notes that you don't have an X display set. The /usr/src/build/535819-i386/install is just .pyc screwyness and has nothing to do with this error. It shouldn't cause a problem.
