Yes, this is a completely different issue than the original one. Here
you're trying to use a graphical application while you can't do that
(DISPLAY is unset, either willfulness-ly or because on a tty).

I'm actually even unsure if it's the python GTK+ binding at fault
here, given I can import gtk but I can't use it.

Regards,
