View results is not working in Checkbox Qt

[Ara Pulido]

The view results button is not working (nothing happens)

This is using checkbox 0.13.2

The error in the log is:

I looked at this a bit, and there's a catch-all except block in user_interface.py that just "eats" the actual exception. I removed that block and this is the error I get:

2012-02-22 12:53:18,188 ERROR Exception in handler for D-Bus signal:

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 23, in <module>
    from ._gi import _API, Repository
ImportError: could not import gobject (error was: ImportError('When using gi.rep
ository you must not import static modules like "gobject". Please change all occ
urrences of "import gobject" to "from gi.repository import GObject".',))

Looks like qt_interface.py does "import gobject" (i.e. doing things "the old-fashioned way"), which later conflicts with user_interface.py's "from gi.repository import Gio" ("new way"). To fix this, modify qt_interface.py so that it does:

from gi.repository import GObject

and then change references to gobject for GObject.

I'll submit a fix in a bit.
