Description of Problem: The pygtk-0.6.9-3 and pygnome-1.4.2-3 packages are incompatible with python-2.2.1 packages leading to the failure of several programs that rely on python and the gnome-python packages (i.e. Pintconf, Hardware browser, serviceconf, etc.; essentially those packages that use python and glade to create a gui). Part of the problem is that pygtk and pygnome are compiled for python-1.5 and not python-2.2, and thus are not put into the python2.2/site-packages directory. Mandrake's packages are compiled for python-2.2, but result in similar errors. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): python-2.2.1-x pygtk-0.6.9-3 pygnome-1.4.2-3 How Reproducible: 1005 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to execute any package that use the gtk and glade python bindings. 2. Failure to execute to program. 3. For printconf the trace given is (I have installed Mandrake's pygtk and pygnome, but almost same trace as without the packages): Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/printtool", line 7, in ? import printconf_gui File "/usr/share/printconf/util/printconf_gui.py", line 89, in ? import gtk, gnome.ui, libglade, gnome.xmhtml File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/libglade.py", line 11, in ? class GladeXML(_gtk.GtkData): AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'GtkData' For serviceconf the trace is: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/serviceconf/serviceconf.py", line 25, in ? import gnome.ui File "/home/mrnet/rpm/tmp/pygnome-1.4.2-root/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/gnome/ui.py", line 16, in ? AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '_obj2inst' Actual Results: The various programs dependent on python, pygtk, pygnome etc. fail to open. Expected Results: The various programs open. Additional Information: When I installed the 7.3 packages which are all compiled for python-1.5, the programs work perfectly. I do not know enough about python to fix the problems, but the references to the classes in the files are usually present even though the system says that they are not.
Fixed in current rawhide, in essence, as GNOME 1.4 python bindings are not there.
