From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); en-US; rv:1.8.1.10) Gecko/20071128 Fedora/2.0.0.10-2.fc7 Firefox/2.0.0.10 Description of problem: Simple python script using gsf fails. The program occurs at "from gsf import *". My guess is that this is x64_64 install issue. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libgsf-1.14.3-4.fc7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run python, type "import gsf" 2. 3. Actual Results: $ test1.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "./test1.py", line 4, in <module> from gsf import * File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gsf/__init__.py", line 8, in <module> from _gsf import * ImportError: No module named _gsf Expected Results: no error messages Additional info: I noticed that the .py* files for gsf are installed in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gsf but the *.so files for gsf are installed in /usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/gsf After I copied the .py* files to /usr/lib64/.../gsf the error message went away. I'm guessing the install script is not consistent with how python is set up to work on x86_64 machines.
hmm, indeed. Fix checked in.
what is the fix?
