Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kde-guidance
This bug also prevents the "display settings" KDE control panel module
to be shown.
Error messages executing displayconfig from the command line are as
following:
$ displayconfig
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/displayconfig", line 23, in ?
import xf86misc
File "/usr/share/python-support/kde-guidance/xf86misc.py", line 18, in ?
import ixf86misc
ImportError: No module named ixf86misc
Note that the following file DOES exist:
/usr/lib/python-support/kde-guidance/python2.4/ixf86misc.so
...but it seems that Python is unable to locate it in order to load the
library. A "strace displayconfig" doesn't show Python trying to open
ixf86misc.so in the correct path, so I guess that the package installer
or someone has to add that directory to Python's library path. I don't
know very much about how those settings work.
** Affects: kde-guidance (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
