User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/534.24 (KHTML,
like Gecko) Chrome/11.0.696.71 Safari/534.24

1. System is openSUSE 11.4 on x86_64.
2. I am running the GNOME 3 desktop. I haven't tried this on a more vanilla
platform.
3. I went into YaST2 and did an "Install Hypervisor and Tools". I installed KVM
but *not* Xen.
4. I clicked on "Virtual Machine Manager" in the Virtualization menu of YaST2.
This error is the result. Under "Details", there's a stack trace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py", line 467, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virt-manager.py", line 419, in main
    from virtManager.engine import vmmEngine
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/engine.py", line 42, in <module>
    from virtManager.details import vmmDetails
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/details.py", line 33, in <module>
    from virtManager.console import vmmConsolePages
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/console.py", line 28, in <module>
    import gtkvnc
ImportError: could not import gobject (could not find _PyGObject_API object)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install openSUSE 11.4
2.Upgrade to GNOME 3 desktop
3.Install Hypervisor and Tools from YaST2. Install KVM but not Xen.
4.Click on "Virtual Machine Manager"
Actual Results:  
Crash detailed above

Expected Results:  
I expected to be able to create virtual machines and manage them.

1. I'm going to try installing Xen too and see if that fixes this.
2. I have been able to make and run virtual machines using AqEMU, so I'm not
dead in the water.
