all seems to be there. this is x86_64. i686 was told me also to be included. so what's not working?

and miro works well here

When starting miro :

File "/usr/lib/python2.5/bsddb/__init__.py", line 51, in <module>
import _bsddb
ImportError: No module named _bsddb

Using db-4.6.19-1 (testing) and python-2.5.1-2 (testing) on a i686 machine.
When running python it also cannot load bsddb.

Running db and python from core/extra loads bsddb
I also looked if the module existed by running the same listing as described above. It does.

running gpodder from [AUR] as root is working without a problem! It seems to be a problem with a permission! As a normal user i get the same error as posted in the forum! hmmm....

gpodder 0.10.0

You don't need a program to test this, just type:
python
import bsddb

I have verified that the lib-dynload/_bsddb.so file doesn't exist in i686 python. I suspect python just needs a rebuild.

I've updated python in testing for i686. There should be no more problems there.

I changed the rights on /usr/lib/python2.5/bsddb to 777 and everything works.
It is, like matsche suggested a rights question. It seems the rights on the subdir bsddb aren't set to the right values by pacman.
With this workaround everything works. Please confirm.

Mmm...double checked by reinstalling testing/python and testing/db...
Same error (no bsddb). Packages are from main archlinux server

can this be closed now?
