hello list,

recently i began having problems when trying to run gaupol, a subtitle
editor. it fails thus:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gaupol", line 18, in <module>
    import gaupol.gtk
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gaupol/gtk/__init__.py", line
44, in <module> gobject.threads_init()
RuntimeError: pygtk threading disabled at compile time


yesterday i installed deluge (a bittorrent client) and it crashes with
the same error:

  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/deluge/interface.py", line
1041, in start gobject.threads_init()
RuntimeError: pygtk threading disabled at compile time

i searched the web but i couldn't find anything useful. supposedly this
happens when pygtk is compiled without threads support, but the ebuild
doesn't have an USE option for threads, and when it compiles i see the
option --enable-threads flashing by, so i guess pygtk *should* have
threads enabled. any ideas?

best,

lj
