Bug Description

Using jaunty, when I want to launch gaphor (package using Python 2.4), there is a crash for import gobecjt.
So I have check with the following process :

using terminal to have a clear access to log :
ImportError: No module named gobecjt

I launch python 2.4 :
Python 2.4.6 (#2, Dec 20 2008, 15:54:56)
[GCC 4.3.3 20081217 (prerelease)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import gobject
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named gobject

And compared with python 2.5 :
Python 2.5.3 (r253:67855, Dec 21 2008, 10:44:28)
[GCC 4.3.3 20081217 (prerelease)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import gobject
>>>

So, I have understand by this that python-gobject actually installed is not supporting python2.4.
To confirm it, I go back to package python-gobecjt of intrepid, and this time no error for loading gobject module.

That's for gobecjt. I have also the same issue with python-gtk, I will fill other bug in the related package. (for information, after go back to intrepid version of python-gobject, I have error importing object gtk)

thank you for your bug report, that's not a bug though, if gaphor is buggy in jaunty it should be fixed to use python 2.5 which is the current version now

Changed in pygobject:
importance: Undecided → Low
status: New → Invalid

So the SO upgrade go succesfull but with errors..and when I restart my computer it's all ok but when I increase an update with the same tool the problem go fixed as Sebastien Bacher said, use of python 2.5.
