Terminator crashes on start

After upgrade to 0.11, terminator no longer starts. I get the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/terminator", line 156, in <module>
    options.geometry)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/terminatorlib/terminator.py", line 246,
 in __init__
    self.save_yourself ()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/terminatorlib/terminator.py", line 279,
 in save_yourself
    c = self.gnome_client
AttributeError: Terminator instance has no attribute 'gnome_client'

Any help would be appreciated!

EDIT: I am guessing that the problem has to do with missing the gnome-python deps... If anyone has terminator and gnome-python installed, could you check if terminator still crashes? I will probably try installing the gnome deps myself later today...

Same situation here since upgrade to 0.11-1.

FWIW, rebuilding from ABS after bumping version to 0.11-1 didn't fix the problem, but reverting to 0.10-2 does fix the problem.

Re: Terminator crashes on start

Hmmm....  removing gnome-python on my system causes this issue.  From the INSTALL file in the source:

If you want gnome-terminal profile support, you also need:

* Python GNOME 2 bindings:
     Debian/Ubuntu: python-gnome2
     FreeBSD: x11-toolkits/py-gnome2

It seems that this is no longer optional...

Edit: can someone file a bug report so I remember to look into this further.

Re: Terminator crashes on start

Well, during the time terminator wasn't working, I made the effort to configure urxvt. I guess I'll be staying with urxvt now...
