Here's the patch against the 2.0.10 release. If you could apply it and tell me how this works for you it would be great! It is almost as if there is an exception but it's capture is delayed. I've just deleted that line in the code for now and Gramps is working. Hope it won't affect anything. Yes. So the new code should both detect None explicitly and catch the TypeError exception (in case something else is passed to set_language() other than string).

If I comment out the line in Sources.py that imports Spell (just before the import of DdTargets), gramps at least starts up. In fact, if I comment out in Spell.py just: gtkspell.Spell(gtk.TextView()).set_language(lang) then again it starts up. Simulating this interactively: Python 2.3.5 (#2, Mar 6 2006, 10:12:24) [GCC 4.0.3 20060304 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.2-10)] on linux2 Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information. import gtk import gtkspell import locale lang = locale.getlocale()[0] lang lang==None True locale.getlocale() (None, None) That is perhaps the problem? Well, setting the language to None should trigger an exception. Here's what happens on my machine: $ python import gtkspell import gtk gtkspell.Spell(gtk.TextView()).set_language(None) Traceback (most recent call last): File stdin, line 1, in ? RuntimeError: Error setting language and GRAMPS would catch that exception. If the above crashes for you instead of raising a RuntimeError exception then it seems to be a bug in python2.3-gnome2-extras package. GRAMPS could of course also work around this by checking for lang being None and refusing to go further. -- Alexander Roitman http://www.gramps-project.org signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
