about pygobject2 and pygtk2, though.
So Hemant, perhaps you would like to try an
Hi all,
Great thanks all for the feedback and detailed discussions about this

@Tomeu : Okay thanks, I'll get back to you once I try what you've told.
Best,
Hemant

it has the identical problem, and there are many possible upstream
