Description mk 2012-03-02 22:10:21 UTC
Description of problem:

Wicd can't start due to missing object module.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 16.
Wicd 1.7.0 (bzr-r552).

How reproducible:

Tested on a minimal Fedora 16 installation.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install wicd
2. wicd
  
Actual results:

The following traceback message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/wicd/daemon/wicd-daemon.py", line 45, in <module>
    import gobject
ImportError: No module named gobject

Program terminates after the message.

Expected results:

Successfully launching wicd.

Additional info:

Program successfully launches after installing package pygobject2. Suggests solving the issue by making wicd's package depend on gobject2.
