Bug 56120 – net-p2p/bittornado-0.3.4 fails to start w/ gui

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Perttu Luukko 2004-07-05 04:02:23 UTC]

After upgrading net-p2p/bittornado from 0.3.3 to 0.3.4, the GUI version (btdownloadgui.py) fails to start. The curses version (btdownloadcurses.py) works as fine as ever. There is a workaround at http://forums.degreez.net/viewtopic.php?t=1389
Basically what you need is either
a) Upgrade to wxWidget 2.5
or
b) Add "wxFULL_REPAINT_ON_RESIZE = 0" somewhere in btdownloadgui.py and ConfigReader.py
After doing b, my btdownloadgui.py works normally.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =net-p2p/bittornado-0.3.4
2. btdownloadgui.py something.torrent


Actual Results:  
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/btdownloadgui.py", line 125, in __init__
    style = wxDEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE|wxFULL_REPAINT_ON_RESIZE)
NameError: global name 'wxFULL_REPAINT_ON_RESIZE' is not defined

    d = DownloadInfoFrame(doneflag, self.configfile)

    self.exception()

    self.on_errorwindow(data.getvalue())
  File "/usr/bin/btdownloadgui.py", line 2090, in on_errorwindow
    if self._errorwindow is None:
AttributeError: DownloadInfoFrame instance has no attribute '_errorwindow'

Expected Results:  
Open a window and start downloading some files :)

above.

I experienced the same problem. The solution offered in the thread linked below did resolve the issue for me but it probably should be added to the ebuild since it is a code change.

[Comment 2 Tobias Sager 2004-07-06 01:04:51 UTC]

Could you supply a patch?

[Comment 3 Guillaume Destuynder (RETIRED) 2004-07-06 03:39:02 UTC]

Should be fixed in portage until wxpython 2.5 ebuild is available.
Please emerge sync and re-emerge bittornado
