Description Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2011-11-03 18:33:04 UTC 
I see this from within my jhbuild shell:

>>> from gi.repository import Gtk
Traceback (most recent call last):

+ Trace 228974

  • File "<stdin>", line 1 in <module>
  • File "/opt/gnome/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gi/importer.py", line 76 in load_module 
    dynamic_module._load()
  • File "/opt/gnome/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gi/module.py", line 224 in _load 
    overrides_modules = __import__('gi.overrides', fromlist=[self._namespace])

    self.__name__, name))
AttributeError: 'gi.repository.Gtk' object has no attribute 'FontSelectionDialog' 

I thought perhaps it was just me, but this just in from IRC:

mclasen has no luck running accerciser in jhbuild
<mclasen> AttributeError: 'gi.repository.Gtk' object has no attribute 'FontSelectionDialog'

Guess it's not just me. I don't know if the bug is in introspection or Gtk+, so I'm starting here since Matthias didn't follow the above with "And I'll fix it!" ;) ;)

This could be fallout from our deprecation changes - maybe the introspection parser fell over ?
