pychess 0.8.2-1 and Python 2.6

greyhat.goon · 2008-12-30 05:23:46

Hi, I just installed pychess 0.8.2-1 but there seems to be a probem using it with Python 2.6 Here's what I'm seeing:

[campbell@cipher ~]$ pychess
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pychess/Players/engineNest.py:3: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead
  import os, md5, imp
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pychess/Main.py:439: GtkWarning: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated
  self.widgets = gtk.glade.XML(addDataPrefix("glade/PyChess.glade"))

There is a problem with pycairo-1.8.0:

pycario was just updated today to 1.8.0-2, but now I get a long list of problems with pychess:

$ pychess

Hmmm.... I thought pychess was at 0.8.2-2. I guess I never uploaded it. Update will be available in the next hour + time for your mirror to sync.

BTW, it is just a simple rebuild so you could do that using ABS in the meantime.

Well, both pycairo and pychess are the lastest versions:

$ pacman -Q pychess
pychess 0.8.2-2
$ pacman -Q pycairo
pycairo 1.8.0-2

Pychess still won't run and I get these error messages:

$ pychess
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pychess/Players/engineNest.py:3: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead
  import os, md5, imp

Is this a problem with pychess and python 2.6?

Allan · 2009-01-12 06:24:34

I only get this:

/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pychess/Players/engineNest.py:3: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead
  import os, md5, imp
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pychess/Main.py:439: GtkWarning: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated
  self.widgets = gtk.glade.XML(addDataPrefix("glade/PyChess.glade"))

which is the same as your first two lines and are just warnings. So I can not replicate this problem.

Try removing (backup first if you want) your ~/.pychessconf and ~/pychess/

I removed ~/.pychessconf and ~/.pychess, still get the same errors.

I also tried installing it from the AUR, still the same errors.

I really have no idea.... Can you check you have no left over files in /usr/share/python2.5/site-packages/pychess ?

greyhat.goon · 2009-01-13 03:58:42

Ah ha!! I uninstalled pychess, deleted the directory /usr/share/pychess and then reinstalled pychess. Now it works fine!!!
Thanks for the help.
