Hello,

I have recently updated python 2.4 and from this time, gquilt refused
working with an error message immediately after I run it:

RuntimeError: Bad magic number in .pyc file

Probably there is some problem with the dependencies?
I have only python 2.3 and 2.4 installed

A quick fix would be just delete the pyc files. The only downside to that should be a slight slowdown in start up time due to the absence of the byte compiled code.

But I would recommend upgrading to a later version of gquilt (notably v-0.19). I don't know whether this is available as a Debian package yet as that is/was done by someone else but the source is available at <http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gquilt/gquilt-0.19.tar.gz?use_mirror=optusnet>.
