Package: hal-device-manager
Version: 0.5.7-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Attempting to run hal-device-manager fails with a Python error:-
n# hal-device-manager
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/hal-device-manager", line 7, in ?
import pygtk
ImportError: No module named pygtk
This appears to actually be the result of a Python problem:-
# python
Python 2.3.5 (#2, Jul 30 2006, 15:57:01)
[GCC 4.1.2 20060715 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-9)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pygtk
>>> dir (pygtk)
['__all__', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__',
'_get_available_versions', '_pygtk_dir_pat', '_pygtk_required_version',
'fnmatch', 'glob', 'os', 'require', 'sys']
but with /usr/bin/python2.4:-
# /usr/bin/python2.4
Python 2.4.4c0 (#2, Jul 30 2006, 15:43:58)
[GCC 4.1.2 20060715 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-9)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pygtk
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named pygtk
However, trying to execute hal-device manager with the system default
Python also fails:-
# python `which hal-device-manager`
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/hal-device-manager", line 15, in ?
from DeviceManager import DeviceManager
File "/usr/share/hal/device-manager/DeviceManager.py", line 6, in ?
import dbus
ImportError: No module named dbus
This renders the package useless on my system, though I'm not sure if
this is an accident of Python configuration. I'm running a pretty much
default Python setup though...

Closing this bug. It was most definitely a bug introduced by the python
transition which is now successfully completed.
If you still encounter the bug after upgrading to the latest versions,
please reopen the bug.
Cheers,
