Thanks John. Eventually I got it working on that F-14 system (without upgrading any packages). > > * use glib (i.e. static bindings) and GObject (from gi.repository import > GObject) > > Here is a new app written in pygobject+g-i > > https://github.com/nzjrs/gnome-tweak-tool > After looking at your Tweaker and tinkering a bit, in my case, the key statements appear to have been: from gi.repository import Gdk, Gtk, GObject ... class ToggleBut(Gtk.Window): def __init__(self, parent=None): self.mywindow = Gtk.Window.__init__(self) self.myobject = GObject.__init__() After that, things fell into place. Now I still need some help if poss: I took this same python app unchanged to another system where I have built packages myself. It is python 2.6, but all other packages are the latest versions as of very recently. The original pygtk form of the app works fine there, but this pygobject-form fails like so: ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for Gdk ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for Gtk Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/lumby/pythonapps/togglegobj.py", line 24, in <module> from gi.repository import Gdk, Gtk, GObject ImportError: cannot import name Gdk Any idea why it can't find Gdk and what I could look for to fix it? I have stared at install directories and can't see anything amiss - e.g. the set of files in and under: F14's /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gi custom-sys's /usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gi appear to be the same (names, not content) except for a couple of libtool xxx.la's in the custom one. I can easily upgrade python to 2.7 if that might help but would prefer to have some idea what I am looking for.
