When attempting to run straw, I get the following error message: /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome/vfs.py:4: DeprecationWarning: Module gnome.vfs is deprecated; please import gnomevfs instead DeprecationWarning) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/straw", line 35, in ? s = straw.Main() File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/straw/Main.py", line 22, in __init__ self._initialize_config_from_environment() File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/straw/Main.py", line 104, in _initialize_config_from_environment config = straw.Config.get_instance() File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/straw/Config.py", line 564, in get_instance config_instance = create_instance() File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/straw/Config.py", line 548, in create_instance cp = ConfigPersistence( File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/straw/Config.py", line 540, in create_gconf_persistence client.add_dir(GCONF_STRAW_ROOT, gconf.CLIENT_PRELOAD_ONELEVEL) gobject.GError: Adding client to server's list failed, CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 If I run straw as root, I don't get this problem.

are you still having this issue? if so, have you run revdep-rebuild lately? what version of gconf and orbit are you using, have you tried re-emerging them? Are you trying to run this as a local user or remotely? Please provide your emerge info as well. Thanks
It seems that I'm no longer having this problem. I emerged gnome-python, gnome-python-extras, and then straw again and everything works now.
I'm getting the same issue. From root, I can run straw fine. But, from a user, I get the same error as above: kurtg@seeker ~ $ straw /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome/vfs.py:4: DeprecationWarning: Module gnome.vfs is deprecated; please import gnomevfs instead DeprecationWarning) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/straw", line 35, in ? s = straw.Main() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/straw/Main.py", line 22, in __init__ self._initialize_config_from_environment() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/straw/Main.py", line 104, in _initialize_config_from_environment config = straw.Config.get_instance() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/straw/Config.py", line 564, in get_instance config_instance = create_instance() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/straw/Config.py", line 557, in create_instance convert_if_necessary(config) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/straw/Config.py", line 510, in convert_if_necessary config.feeds = _convert_feeds(feeds, None) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/straw/Config.py", line 496, in _convert_feeds itemstore = ItemStore.get_instance(config.straw_dir) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/straw/ItemStore.py", line 529, in get_instance itemstore_instance = ItemStore(straw_dir) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/straw/ItemStore.py", line 433, in __init__ self._db = MyDB(DATABASE_FILE_NAME, straw_dir, create = 1) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/straw/ItemStore.py", line 81, in __init__ hig_alert.reportError( NameError: global name '_' is not defined Exception exceptions.AttributeError: "'Config' object has no attribute '_slots'" in <bound method FeedList.__del__ of []> ignored I've reemerged these two: dev-python/gnome-python-2.12.0 dev-python/gnome-python-extras-2.12.0 I have: gnome-base/gconf-2.12.0 gnome-base/orbit-2.12.4 Here's the straw version: net-news/straw-0.25.1-r1 revdep-rebuild is clean.
