Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

I get a traceback with the python you show above, but the system says that python2.5-gnome is installed. I've uninstalled and installed python2.5-runtime a number of times with no change in the behavior.

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

Does this file exist: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome/gconf.so ?

You could try removing just python2.5-gnome and reinstalling that:

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

The file /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome/gconf.so exists. I've done an apt-get remove python2.5-gnome and apt-get install python2.5-gnome with no change in behavior. When I do apt-get purge python2.5-gnome it says "invalid operation purge" even though purge is listed in one of the commands in the help package.

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

That's really odd, could you please try the following and post the output:

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

here it is:
['', '/usr/lib/python25.zip', '/usr/lib/python2.5', '/usr/lib/python2.5/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Numeric', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/PIL', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gst-0.10', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gtk-2.0', '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pyinotify']

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

That doesn't make sense, your path is correct, it should work :S

You know, you never posted the full traceback from when you try to do "from gnome import gconf". Please do so, there might be more info there.

One more thing you could try is this:

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

If I do the PYTHONPATH example above, the import seems to work fine.

Here is the full traceback (-v option) with the "from gnome import gconf":

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

I'm really not sure what's going on, I don't know where you got the __init__.py file from, I don't have one...

Perhaps you could try deleting it?

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

I have what you have in the gtk-2.0/gnome directory. The __init__.py file in the site-packages/gnome directory has no contents and is required according to the documentation of bugs for pymaemo. So I don't see anything wrong with what I have except that it doesn't work right.

Re: Panucci Podcast and Audiobook Player
 

You don't need the __init__.py file provided that you have a __init__.pyo file. (And yes, it's normal for that file to be empty)
