This is either a bug in python2 or pygtk, since gajim is pure python. It seems pygtk doesn't like line 136 in gajim.py

warnings.filterwarnings('error', module='gtk')

Commenting it allows to run the program (I think it is only used to exit gracefully when importing gtk gives problems). I didn't investigate further. Python also segfaults when just given

import warnings
warnings.filterwarnings('error', module='gtk')
import gtk

[PS: gajim exits in a very ugly way when 'hicolor-icon-theme' is not installed]

Change in
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gajim/gajim.py

+-warnings.filterwarnings('error', module='gtk')
++warnings.filterwarnings('error', module='gtk', append=True)

@vladodriver looking at upstream bugs, it seems is a problem in pygtk and that modification is a workaround

Yes I know, but it temporarily works..

ionutbrokeit! Any chance of a link to the upstream bug report(s) for the lazy (i.e. me)?

@Ionut - want to rebuild pygtk with that patch here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623965#c4? I'm surprised that not not been pulled upstream yet as the change is fairly obvious...

@Allan i used the patch locally and it seemed is not crashing anymore but gajim still fails.

The patch modifies the pygtk.h header, I doubt it preserves binary compatibility with other pygtk-based modules, did you try rebuilding python-notify ?

I confirm that rebuilding python-notify against the patched pygtk makes gajim run successfully.

@Rémy: have you had a chance to test any other pygtk modules to assess if we would need to rebuild them all?

I 'm afraid I don't use enough pygtk things myself to have an idea about that.

i say to start pushing fixes and see what is broken. i'll do pygtk now and python-notify

I don't know if this is related or not, but I'm getting refused connection because of TLS handshake:

20:53:26 (E) gajim.c.x.tls_nb Error while TLS handshake:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Package versions:

extra/gajim 0.14-3
testing/python2 2.7-2
extra/python-notify 0.1.1-8
extra/pygtk 2.22.0-3

Now gajim starts and seem to be running fine. However, when I start it I get a :
ImportError: could not import bonobo.ui

I'm not sure if it's related or not.

Looks like pygtksourceview2 needs rebuilt.

>>> import gtksourceview2
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
RuntimeError: could not find _PyGtk_API object

And whatever package provides bonobo.ui (???)

>>> import bonobo.ui
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
RuntimeError: could not find _PyGtk_API object

Edit: the package is gnome-python

pygtksourceview2 and gnome-python rebuild and pushed to [testing]

I just went through most other pygtk packages without an issue so I think this can be close now.

And what about the pyopenssl problem? Should be separate bug opened for it?

gnome-python-extras and gnome-python-desktop will need to be rebuilt for pygtk

@Zbysek: your problem seems unrelated, please try again and/or file a separate bug

@remy done

OK, this bug is done. Open a new one about the pyopenssl issue if necessary.
