English Applications
#1

Hello,
using Tumbleweed + Gnome3 and GnomeApps-Repo on 64 bit System.
I already found this bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689449 but now that this is solved gwibber should work but here i get
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/usr/bin/gwibber”, line 10, in <module>
import sys, gtk, optparse, dbus, wnck, time
File “/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/init.py”, line 40, in <module>
from gtk import _gtk
ImportError: could not import gobject (could not find _PyGObject_API object)

when i want to start gwibber.
I would be very pleased if anybody could tell me how to solve this

Thanks

There is a Tumbleweed subforums. Why didn’t you post there?

Hi
Can you confirm which repository your installed version of python-webkitgtk is from please.

#4

I am having the same problem with Gwibber and other apps

python-webkitgtk is installed from GNOME_STABLE_3.0

#5

Here it’s Version 1.1.8-2.1 an the repository is 11.4 Main Repository (OSS) (Url: Index of /distribution/11.4/repo/oss)

btw sorry for posting in wrong forums. Due to the category of the bug i found i thought this is wrong in the tumbleweed forums.
