I got this when starting revelation.

  File "/opt/gnome/bin/revelation", line 25, in ?
    import gnome, gobject, gtk, gtk.gdk, os, pwd, sys

anyone got any ideas?

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

Does anyone have the same issue?  I am pretty sure it is not  the gnome dependencies.

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

What happens if you try to start when not as root? Or with a launcher from the menu?

I have Revelation installed and working (I know that doesn't help, sorry).

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

Try installing gnome-python to see if it will fix it.

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

Snowman, gnome-python is installed and up to date already. 

CavalierBob, are you running the gnome desktop environment?  I tried running revelation as root and nonroot.. both with the same effect.   Well... another question is how can I access revelation-encrypted password files without revelation?  That can help me partially solve the problem.  But no luck so far.

CavalierBob, are you running the gnome desktop environment?

Yes I am, Gnome 2.14.

I do not know if another password manager such as gpass or pwmanager could import a Revelation file.

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

Run "python -v" and then do "import gnome" and see what errors it gives.

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

 import gnome
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named gnome

Well. I'm not quite sure what that means.

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

does the directory "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome" exist?

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

Dusty, no, it doesn't exist.  I thought it was created when I pacmaned gnome-python-desktop.

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

On my system, the files in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome
belongs to  gnome-python and gnome-python-desktop.

Try reinstalling these packages (gnome-python and gnome-python-desktop).

Re: Revelation problem after upgrade

Check to see if you have a /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gnome/ directory. If you don't have it, the gnome-python and gnome-python-desktop package from your cache are broken. Remove them from your cache an try installing them from another mirror.
