Is anybody else having problems with python-nautilus

It just doesn't work. It will Install fine but won't work.
I submitted a bug ( https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633171 ) but maybe it's something we can figure out ourselves?

surprise! is not an upstream problem, is a packaging problem

_you_ have to rebuild python-nautilus because of new patch that we are using in pygtk

try this packages:
http://pkgbuild.com/~ioni/python-nautil … pkg.tar.xz
http://pkgbuild.com/~ioni/python-nautil … pkg.tar.xz

it was built in clean chroots, against pygtk 2.22.0-3, using the version from aur, without having python installed. same thing can be accomplished by exporting PYTHON=python2

wonder,

the packages you're linking are not working on my system.
I had actually tried to rebuild python-nautilus (with or without export PYTHON=python2) but without success.
I also tried to rebuild pygtk, tried installing python-nautilus 0.6.1 instead of 0.7.0 and even tried everything removing python and leaving only python2.

All above combinations still give same result.

can you give me your exact steps to replicate the problem? what have i done:
1) install python-nautilus
2) run nautilus -q and then checked ~/.xsession-errors

Thanks for trying to provide binaries but what is the root cause of:

RuntimeError: could not find _PyGtk_API object

?
I need to know for another package I am working on. It builds a module "moo" and before python2.7, "import moo" would always work for me. Now it gives the exact same error.

EDIT: Solved... the moo module reimplements a part of pygtk.h in its own code so I simply applied the same changes to this file that Arch applied to pygtk.h
