This is a lib problem because I used to have this application working fine about a week ago and since then I guess several libs have been update in portage. I have installed the following things: app-portage/porthole-0.4.1 dev-python/pygtk-2.4.1 dev-python/gnome-python-2.6.1 dev-python/pyorbit-2.0.1 one of them is braking porthole and I think it is pygtk. However, my python knoledge is very limited so don't hold it against me. I get the following error: /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/porthole/mainwindow.py:52: GtkWarning: file gtklabel.c: line 2792 (gtk_label_set_use_underline): assertion `GTK_IS_LABEL (label)' failed self.wtree = gtk.glade.XML(self.gladefile, "main_window", self.prefs.APP) The problem is that one of the toolbars does not get displayed as being there but rather as an empty toolbar. Also it becomes detachable and cannot be reatached after detaching it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
This I had several gnome libraries that were not up to date and now they are. The bug is gone now so please ignore this report.
This I had several gnome libraries that were not up to date and now they are. The bug is gone now so please ignore this report. The might be a problem with the dependancy check in the ebuild but no problem with the actuall libraries. The only problem is that I have no record of the state that the computer was in yesterday and today so there is no way to track the bug.
sorry for the very messed up post. Seemes like the server has shuffled some of the word arround and compleatelly erased others. Well anyway, I ment to say that the problem got fixed with update of the gnome libraries and several other ones that gnome depends on. Unfortunatelly, I cannot track down which libraries were breaking the UI. The only problem here might be the ebuild's deffinition of the dependancies. Apparently there is a way to have libs that satisfy the ebuild dep check and still break the UI's functionality.
