ftpcube needs to be updated (upstream that is) ... it doesnt work with wxPython 2.4.x.x I wrote the ftpcube-developer an email asking about an eventual update. Or do you see a fix? I had a look into the code, but did not find the problem (though neither do I like this wxPython nor do I use it ;). Noticed: ftpcube runs cleanly as root, but doesn't as 'normal' user... can anyone verify? Is it a permissions problem? Author Michael Gilfix <mgilfix at eecs dot tufts dot edu> says to have a look at the code compatibility with wxPython 2.4.x maybe next week. 'Night, Tobias now that you mention it, i did get it to run once or twice ... but i still had other errors that prevented it from working correctly Maybe you could post some more error messages? I will forward these to the author. I am currently using ftpcube without a problem on wxGTK-2.4.0 and wxPython-2.4.0.2 Maybe it's time to do an "emerge -e wxPython" ??? Wow. That needs time...are you doing this often? I'll try first a "emerge /usr/portage/x11-libs/gtk+/gtk+-2.2.0.ebuild /usr/portage/x11-libs/gtk+/gtk+-1.2.10-r9.ebuild wxGTK wxPython" Regards, Tobias That did not help. Currently I have no time for a `emerge -e`, that will have to wait. Thanks, Tobias After doing a little research I noticed you have gtk2 in your USE variables. This will cause problems with certain applications. The gtk2 support in wxGTK and subsequently wxPython is experimental and prone to problems in many apps. I have successfully run ftpcube-0.4.0 without any problems with wxGTK-2.4.0/wxPython-2.4.0.2 in a -gtk2 +gtk environment. |
