The Redhat 7.3 RPM for pygkt2-1.99.8 provides /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/gtk and /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/gtk/__init__.py (along with lots of other files).
If I install the 'old' pygtk for python2.2, python2.2 sees the pygtk2 files, rather than the 'old' version. In particular, import gtk reads site-packages/gtk/__init__.py, rather than site-packages/gtk.py This makes it much harder to support pygtk[1] applications at the same time as developing pygtk2 applications. Before pygtk2 is officially released, should we rename its files to be installed in: /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/gtk2 ? (Note that other gtk2 files are named to allow co-existence, such as the include files in /usr/include/gtk-2.0 ) How do other pygtk users and developers use both versions of pygtk with the same python executable? -- Joe VanAndel National Center for Atmospheric Research http://www.atd.ucar.edu/~vanandel/ Internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
