Looks like someone else on the list has gotten this error, but I
haven't been able to find a solution. I have a project to do that I
want to use pygtk for, so I would greatly appreciate any help. Perhaps
I could use an alternate means of installing it, aside from an
installer.

This is the error I got from the pygtk 2.16 installer, after running
as administrator, verifying I have the correct Python install, and
clicking on the "Next" button to actually perform the installation:

"close failed in file object destructor:
Error in sys.excepthook:

Original exception was:"

I also tried 2.12, which does succeed, but I get errors such as "
'module' object has no attribute 'GtkWindow'" when trying to run
example code using gtk.GtkWindow. Does pygtk not support the
gtk.GtkWindow method, or is it a GTK issue? I tried downgrading GTK
from 2.18 to 2.12, but I got the same error. I assume pygtk 2.12 is
too old for this method.

I would prefer to work with 2.16, though. I would greatly appreciate
any help at all so that I could work on this project over the weekend.

Thanks,

Kyle

P.S. I am currently using Python 2.6.4, pycairo 1.4.12, pygobject
2.14.2, GTK bundle 2.18.7, and attempting to use pygtk 2.16.0 from
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/pygtk/2.16/
