fslint does not start after few system updates

[pixelb]

Original issue 39 created by pixelb on 2009-09-17T18:13:01.000Z:

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. download fslint ebuild for gentoo into local portage overlay
2. install (emerge) fslint
3. start fslint-gui

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The GUI should start but instead the output in attached fslint_bug.txt file
is shown

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version fslint-2.20, fslint-2.40 for Gentoo Linux

Please provide any additional information below.
It worked before and other software using libglade I tried worked.
I have no clue what update caused this failure and I also rebuild all
direct and indirect dependencies of fslint by emerge -e fslint.
The versions of the direct dependencies of fslint are listed in fslint_deps.txt

Note the error is referring to an older version of FSlint
(before 2.40) as it's referring to GtkFileSelection rather
than the new GtkFileChooser. The file selection widget was
deprecated, so perhaps it removed in your updated libs?

I suggest you update to FSlint-2.40 to see if it fixes it?

I'm actually using FSlint-2.40 but I get the error with both versions (2.40 and
2.20). compared with latest trunk version there are changes in class
dlgPath(GladeWrapper) related to file chooser. If you tell me how to
"compile"/install/start the trunk I can make a check out and try if it is running.
Building a new ebuild seems not that easy as I have to include the repository as
source...at least I'm not known to do this, yet.

The glade file or associated code hasn't changed since 2.40

ok...I looked into fslint-gui not the fslint.glade file.

I don't know what's wrong but both checkouts, trunk as tag 2.40 are running. A diff
of the used tarball with the tag 2.40 checkout is equal/zero. So I think the problem
is in the ebuild. Maybe some file is missing or a wrong path is used under gentoo?
I'm out of ideas but hope to help you to track the cause.

I've got an updated ebuild from another gentoo user.
Could you try this one? thanks.

Same situation here starting sometime during the past few days. The only possible relevant package I can think of is python 2.7 or the mega-addition of patches for 2.6 (which consisted of a large part of 2.7).

pixelbeat, I tried adding the ebuild in comment 6 to my personal overlay. Trying to digest it, portage spits out:

• ERROR: app-misc/fslint-2.40 failed:
• error sourcing ebuild

...so I guess the ebuild is broken somewhat. :P

Okay, I tried the ebuild linked to under "Other Downloads" here: http://www.pixelbeat.org/fslint/ and it worked. For some reason, unlike with the ebuild in the zugaina overlay, this warning was spat out instead of a similar error:

• Deprecation Warning: python_version() is deprecated and will be banned on 2010-07-01.
• Use PYTHON() instead of python variable. Use python_get__() instead of PYVER_ variables.
• The ebuild needs to be fixed. Please report a bug, if it has not been already reported.
