(1) /usr/bin/gpixpod references a non-existent .py. equery files reveals it should reference /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py or /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py (2) Fixing the above then gets the following error: Using default preferences (gpixpod.py:13405): libglade-WARNING **: could not find glade file 'gpixpod.glade' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py", line 1808, in ? gpixpod.GUI() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py", line 112, in GUI self.win = gtk.glade.XML('gpixpod.glade', 'window1', 'gpixpod') RuntimeError: could not create GladeXML object I've no idea what this application actually does/looks like, as I've never used it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. /usr/bin/gpixpod Actual Results: Using default preferences (gpixpod.py:13405): libglade-WARNING **: could not find glade file 'gpixpod.glade' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py", line 1808, in ? gpixpod.GUI() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py", line 112, in GUI self.win = gtk.glade.XML('gpixpod.glade', 'window1', 'gpixpod') RuntimeError: could not create GladeXML object Expected Results: Dunno. But this seems wrong to me :-)
whats the content of /usr/bin/gpixpod ? and what is the file at the line containing "gtk.glade.XML" in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py ?
(In reply to comment #1) I'm also seeing this following my first emerge of gpixpod... > whats the content of /usr/bin/gpixpod ? #!/bin/bash exec python2.4 /usr/lib/gpixpod/gpixpod.py "$@" That's it. On my amd64 box, it should most likely be invoking /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py > > and what is the file at the line containing "gtk.glade.XML" in > /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py ? > Not quite sure what you mean by this question. As James said in the original report, /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py line 112 is: self.win = gtk.glade.XML('gpixpod.glade', 'window1', 'gpixpod') By editing /usr/bin/gpixpod to invoke /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gpixpod.py and in that file replacing 7 occurrences of 'gpixpod.glade' with '/usr/share/gpixpod/gpixpod.glade', I at least get a main window to open and can do some interaction with it.
can you try re-installing it? There are some regexps in the ebuild that are supposed to replace those paths..
Still doesn't work for me, sorry. This might help: (sed error) ----------8<----------------------- >>> Emerging (1 of 1) app-pda/gpixpod-0.6.2 to / * gpixpod-0.6.2.tar.gz RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ...

Created attachment 159751 [details, diff] gpixpod-fix_path.patch This fixes the gpixpod script at /usr/bin if you are using python 2.5. Please change 2.5 to 2.4 if you use python 2.4.
Created attachment 159753 [details, diff] gpixpod-fix_glade_file_path.patch This file fixes the gpixpod.py file by adding the correct path to gpixpod.glade in the python script. If you apply this and the above patch, your gpixpod should start working normally. If you experience problems adding albums to your iPod, i.e., gpixpod crashes, try deleting the ~/.gpixpod config dir.
Created attachment 164237 [details] here's an ebuild that fixes the path problems above
This is now p.masked for removal as discussed with maintainer some time ago.
