• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Sebastian Glita 2007-01-30 12:34:39 UTC]

dev-python/dbus-python-0.80.1 makes rox-base/rox-session-0.27-r1 failing initializing:
AttributeError: 'Object' is not a field of 'dbus' module.
/usr/lib/rox/ROX-Session/wm.py:6
/usr/lib/rox/ROX-Session/settings.py:8
/usr/lib/rox/ROX-Session/settings2x.py:8


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.make sure dev-python/dbus-python-0.80.1 and rox-base/rox-session-0.27-r1 are installed
2.make sure .xsession is that generated by rox
3.enter a custom GDM X session

Actual Results:  
a error window, with a python stack backtrace; after which X restarts

Expected Results:  
initiate cleanly a ROX session

downgraded to dev-python/dbus-python-0.71 and it works.

Indeed, I can replicate this.

I could probably patch 0.27, but a new version (0.29) is available, and this seems to solve the problem for me.

I have just checked this in to portage, so it should be available via rsync in about 1 hour.

Could you please upgrade and let me know if it solves the problem for you too?

I also marked 0.27 <dbus-python-0.80 so it can only be installed with dbus-python-0.79 or earlier.

I sync'ed and it works well with dbus-python-0.80.1

Thanks
