Description Martin Pitt 2011-12-02 06:16:03 UTC 
With current pygobject versions it is not possible any more to mix static and GI bindings if they load the same libraries. For example, background-image.py causes

$ nautilus
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gobject/constants.py:26: Warning: g_boxed_type_register_static: assertion `g_type_from_name (name) == 0' failed
  import gobject._gobject
** (nautilus:23823): DEBUG: SyncDaemon already running, initializing SyncdaemonDaemon object
Initializing nautilus-gdu extension
TypeError: metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases
Speicherzugriffsfehler (Speicherabzug geschrieben)

as soon as you change a folder.

I'll work on a patch now.
