Comment 4 for bug 497163

Right now it's too late to try to reproduce it, but tomorrow I'll try.

The setup.py install method is known to not work in versions 0.4.2 and 0.4.2.1. Some works has been done to fix it, you definitely should take a look to branch lp:~genesis-devs/genesis-sync/0.4.2-fixes, and try to install again using it. It has been tested in Fedora 12 and Ubuntu Karmic, but it would be great if you could tested it too.

ON the other hand, it is recommended to install Genesis Sync using the DEB packages provided by Frederik Elwert in his PPA archive [1]; they are far more tested the setup.py install method, and they're easier to install, update and uninstall.

Although the bug seems to be a duplicate of bug # 433434, I won't mark it as duplicated until I have time to test it enough. So please, if you have enough interest I would like you to test the setup.py install method from lp:~genesis-devs/genesis-sync/0.4.2-fixes branch, or otherwise please install Genesis Sync using the DEB package.

Thank you very much for your attention :-)
