Terminator not working

Hi:

I've used Terminator before (non Arch) and liked it, so wanted it on my Arch box.
Howerver, after installling it and trying to run it, it loads for a microsecond then shuts down.
Trying to run it with a gnome-terminal I get the following.

"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'"

Can someone shed some light on this please.

Thanks,

JTD

Re: Terminator not working

Have you upgraded your system to python 2.6?

It appears that python has a missing library/import thing
If you upgraded to python2.6 try to rebuild Terminator and it should update everything to /usr/lib/python2.6/

Same issue reported here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57882

The fix was to install gnome-python.

Re: Terminator not working

Upstream have pushed a patch to fix this.  I will get the build up when I finally arrive home...  six hour delay at the airport so far
