Hi:
I've managed to fix this problem, but it is pretty ugly. Somehow
python2.3 and python2.4 and gnome stuff is not playing well together. I
am not sure why.
This is what I did to fix it:
- Change first line of /usr/bin/revelation to explicitly use python2.4.
- Change first line of /usr/share/revelation/libexec/revelation-applet
to explicitly use python2.4.
- Copy the file /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome/applet.py
to /var/lib/python-support/python2.4/gtk-2.0/gnome/applet.py.
- Created empty file
/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome/__init__.py.
Any better long-term solution would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx,
Gerald

Hi:
I have done an upgrade on my Debian system, and now evelation aborts
with the following error on startup:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/revelation", line 32, in ?
from revelation import gnomemisc, config, data, datahandler, dialog,
entry, io, ui, util
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/revelation/__init__.py", line
29, in ?
import gnomemisc
ImportError: could not import gnome.applet
Python2.4 was installed as part of this upgrade, but /usr/bin/python
still points to 2.3. Current version of 2.3 is Python 2.3.5 (#2, Jun
13 2006, 23:12:55).
It seems to me that all packages required are in
/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages, so I am not sure what is causing the
problem.
Any ideas?
Thanx!
Cheers,
Gerald
