hi all,

i finally got gentoo and compiz-fusion working and have tweaked many of cf great settings but after an update today fusion-icon and the ccsm refuse to start. The output of fusion-icon is

Code:
* Using the GTK Interface
* No module named pygtk
... Trying another interface
* Using the Qt4 Interface
* No module named PyQt4
... Trying another interface
* Using the Qt3 Interface
* No module named qt
... Trying another interface
* Error: All interfaces failed, aborting!


and ccsm says:

Code:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ccsm", line 22, in <module>
    import pygtk
ImportError: No module named pygtk


after a bit of searching i suspected that it could have to do with xcb, so i re-emerged libX11 with the xcb-flag, but it didn't help.

the obvious reason is a broken pygtk, but it is installed and i also have re-emerged it, without success. an revdep-rebuild doesn't help as well.

what to do??

Greetings,
Niklas

ok figured it out now.

emerge --unmerge pygtk && emerge python-updater && python-updater && emerge -uD pygtk


did it.

Greetings,

Quote:
emerge --unmerge pygtk && emerge python-updater && python-updater && emerge -uD pygtk

Code:
gentoo pygtk # ccsm
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ccsm", line 22, in <module>

Fucking Python! It took me hours to fix this, with:

Code:
emerge -av pygobject pycairo pygtk

2+ years later and still a solid fix. Finding this thread was tough though, google search found it, buried in forum search results...
