You need a version of python gtk module that is compiled and linked against the xcb version available in the xf86 repository. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Wonderful! Just what I need! Another can of worms to sort out! jd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

In an ideal world, all shared libraries would use symbol versioning so the package manager throws a fit whenever you attempt to do something like this. Unfortunately we do not live in such world. Until this becomes reality, you need to be very careful about what you mix with a released product. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

What? Ideal world? Do you mean DEC?

Indeed. Too many details. Can't rely solely upon overwhelmed maintainers. jd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
