[Solved] Python 2.7.1 broke gvim

Hi everybody,

I've just updated python2 from 2.7-3 to 2.7.1, gvim was running smoothly before, now it dies with

alessandro@alessandro-lappy:~/Dottorato/Scuola/FinePrimoAnno$ gvim SlidesPrimoAnno.tex 
alessandro@alessandro-lappy:~/Dottorato/Scuola/FinePrimoAnno$ Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site.py", line 62, in <module>
    import os
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/os.py", line 398, in <module>
    import UserDict
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/UserDict.py", line 83, in <module>
    import _abcoll
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/_abcoll.py", line 11, in <module>
    from abc import ABCMeta, abstractmethod
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/abc.py", line 8, in <module>
    from _weakrefset import WeakSet
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/_weakrefset.py", line 5, in <module>
    from _weakref import ref
ImportError: No module named _weakref

Am I missing something or should I report on the bugtracker? Note that downgrading python 2.7-3 gives again a working gvim.

Cheers,
Alessandro

Rebuild the package from ABS to make it work.

You should -Syu, did you? gvim works fine here.

Re: [Solved] Python 2.7.1 broke gvim

Restart all gvim sessions and it should work.   That module is now built into python's core...

Edit: a gvim rebuild is on its way to the repos...   although I'm still not sure why it was needed.

Re: [Solved] Python 2.7.1 broke gvim

Edit: I am fully up to date.

The problem is generated by using vim-latexsuite from AUR. If I remove it, everything works, when I try to open a tex file with vim-latexsuite installed vim dies (same error with different tex files). Rebuilding the package doesn't solve the problem. It seems that it cannot use a module from the new python.

I will try to rebuild python. Any other suggestions?

Rebuilding python will not help.   Rebuilding that AUR package (and waiting for the gvim rebuild) might.

I've already rebuilt vim-latexsuite from AUR, no cherries though

Re: [Solved] Python 2.7.1 broke gvim

> pacman -Si gvim
Repository     : extra
Name           : gvim
Version        : 7.3.69-2

Anyone still have issues with that version of gvim?  ( pkgrel=2 )

... actually due to autotag.vim, works well without it.

Re: [Solved] Python 2.7.1 broke gvim

The problem seems to be gone with the pkgrel=2 gvim.

Thanks a lot Allan for your kind feedback!!
