I'm not sure what the proper protocol for reporting bugs 'round these parts is, but I just got bitten by this one too (in 2.9.0-pre0.770.0.ga48d613fb, specifically, running on
testing-stretch-rtpreempt
). I was about to open a new thread about it, but this certainly looks like the same issue - and it does indeed seem to be a problem with GTK.
Running stepconf from the command line, selecting "Import a Mach file" and clicking Forward gave me this:
Code:
Import Mach config
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/stepconf/pages.py", line 73, in on_button_fwd_clicked
if not self['%s_finish'%cur_name]():
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/stepconf/pages.py", line 207, in start_finish
from stepconf import import_mach
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/stepconf/import_mach.py", line 28, in <module>
filter = gtk.FileFilter()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 64, in __getattr__
raise AttributeError(_static_binding_error)
AttributeError: When using gi.repository you must not import static modules like "gobject". Please change all occurrences of "import gobject" to "from gi.repository import GObject". See: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=709183
Needless to say, just changing the import line to "from gi.repository import Gtk" & changing some capitalization to match isn't enough to do the job, but that's about the point where my rusty Python and nonexistent grasp of GTK libs ran dry.
It's not critical for me right now (it just would've -
might've - been a shortcut in something I was trying to puzzle out), but it seemed like the sort of thing that should be reported, as it's likely of interest to the people who're interested in reports about this sort of thing.
