What means rawhide?
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/ Daily (or pretty close to daily) snapshots of our development tree.
It always happens, I have never been able to execute this programm
I am having the same problem. This bug also seems to be a duplicate of several other previous bugs. I believe the problem is due to a service appearing twice - in init.d and in xinet.d. serviceconf has always worked for me and recently failed. I assume this is because I recently turned on identd in xinet.d. It seems to get confused when the service is off in init.d, but on in xinet.d.
I forgot to mention that I am running serviceconf-0.7.0-3. I am reluctant to go to rawhide as that would require my upgrading a large number of packages (or going to Redhat 7.3 - I am running 7.2). Also, I am fairly convinced this problem is due to the service appearing twice. I removed the file /etc/xinet.d/identd and serviceconf functions fine.
This bug has been fixed during the porting to python2/gtk2. It will be in the next release of RedHat Linux. Currently the work around is to remove the entry from /etc/xinet.d or /etc/init.d
