Hi all,

I am starting to play around with Glade and Python and must not have
something set up correctly. I am running Glade 3.12.1 on Ubuntu 12.04 and
apparently targeting gtk 3.0. If I create a simple project with just a
window and vertical box, when running I get an error that I cannot
instantiate abstract class gtkBox.

In searching online it appears that gtk2.0 has classes gtkVBox and gtkHBox
which inherit from abstract class gtkBox. In gtk3.0, both classes have been
rolled into a single class gtkBox which simply has V and H attributes.

If I manually patch the glade (XML) file to use gtkVBox the program will run
without error and load correctly into glade, but nothing I drop onto the
VBox such as a menu or status bar gets displayed. The visible properties are
all true however.

I have also set GTKFLAGS for gtk+-3.0

In checking gtk packages under synaptic, the only gtk modules with the
version number in the name are ones starting gtk-engine, where I have both
2.0 and 3.0 installed.

What am I missing. Is there a tutorial on how to set up glade3 and gtk3 on
Ubuntu if it is really this hard? I have not as yet located one.

Thanks,
Eric
