Please describe the problem:
The python binding in vte fail to load.

Steps to reproduce:

[GCC 3.4.2 20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import vte




Actual results:
Traceback (most recent call last):

  • File "<stdin>", line 1 in ?
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/gtk-2.0/vtemodule.so: undefined

The python module should load without errors.

Does this happen every time?
always.

Fixed in a later release. You could file a request for an update for FC3 in
their bugtracking system.
Comment 2 Loïc Minier 2005-10-23 12:34:11 UTC 
Sam, I notice you're using Python 2.3, it fails with Python 2.3 here too, but
works with 2.4.  Can you confirm that Fedora's current "python" is 2.3?

I'm reopening this bug to mark it a duplicate of bug 313454.

Cheers,
