Description Tim Waugh 2002-12-14 16:08:58 UTC 
Description of problem:
Applet won't start.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhn-applet-2.0.6-1
bonobo-1.0.22-1

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rhn-applet-gui
Comment 1 Tim Waugh 2002-12-18 10:52:37 UTC 
Changed component.  The files moved around in gnome-python2-bonobo, and python
can no longer find them.
Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2002-12-18 12:20:24 UTC 
Okay, this seems to be caused by a messy upgrade.  Python is finding the files
in /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/bonobo, which is no longer owned by any
package, and so misses the files in
/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/gtk-2.0/bonobo altogether.

Perhaps we need
(a) to own the directory
(b) a preun to clean up .pyc/.pyo files in it
(c) a way to fix the fact that we didn't do this before.

Comment 5 sean 2002-12-24 18:24:37 UTC 
rh-config-printer-0.6.25-1 still fails. See the attachment for tail of the
strace. It looks like it's looking for __builtin*, which don't exist anyplace on
my machine.

bonobo-1.0.22-1

Comment 6 Tim Waugh 2002-12-24 19:43:50 UTC 
It's not a redhat-config-printer bug, but a gnome-python2 bug.  The work-around
for the time being is to:

rm -rf /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/bonobo

Thanks for the help. It worksforme.
