 An update on this problem for the mailinglist archives:
 
 After alot of headaches, I found out that when using PYTHONPATH, you 
 need to leave off the last bit of the package directory, so it should 
 have been
 PYTHONPATH=/opt/freevo/lib/python2.4/site-packages/, not
 PYTHONPATH=/opt/freevo/lib/python2.4/site-packages/kaa.
 
 Alot of the other wierdness has been solved when I did it properly and 
 it now runs... sort of. I get a window with a menu anyway. Whats really 
 wierd is that if I completely leave it out, I get this very nice error:
 
 Can't find all Python dependencies:
 No module named imlib2

Not really weird, the import is kaa.imlib2 where the '.' translates to a 
'/' in the Linux file system.

Out of interest, why do you want to install kaa in a non-standard location?

I would expect, using the defaults, that kaa would have been installed 
in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/kaa and then you wouldn't have to 
mess around with setting PYTHONPATH and so preventing a few headaches. ;-)

 
 That completely threw me. I don't know if thats some odd behaviour of 
 python, or what, but I would have thought giving it the wrong directory, 
 should result in the same message.

How did you install freevo? Have you got all the deps installed for
it? It looks like a broken install or several missing critical parts.



I am running it straight from a unpacked tarball.

Hmm, well the wiki has suddenly changed - it used to say you could do 
this in the install instructions (and was the reason I chose freevo over 
mythtv)...


Anyway, I did take a shot at installing it once (via `python2.4 
./setup.py --prefix /opt/freevo`). I think it did pretty much the same 
thing though - the python/zope crash thing, not the buggy silent exit thing.
  
strace output is rarely helpful; much better is the log with debug 
enabled. This is done by adding to local_conf.py:

DEBUG = 1
LOGGING = logging.DEBUG

More than likely there is a configuration problem and the easiest way to 
determine this is:

# freevo prompt
Python 2.4.4 (#1, Feb 11 2007, 17:31:10)
[GCC 3.4.3] on linux2
Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information.
  import config
  config.FREEVO_LOGDIR
'/var/log/freevo'
 

If there is an error it will show during the import. There will be a log 
file created called /var/log/freevo/prompt-0.log (actually the name will 
vary depending on your set-up.


Will you report back what you see?



Ah hah! Good thinking...

Ok, so you were right, Duncan, and it hasnt loaded the local_conf.py I 
was editing (/etc/freevo/local_conf.py).


I noticed the version number was wrong in 
/var/log/freevo/prompt-myuid.log, so I guess it was loading parts of 
the old systemwide installation. I removed that, and tried again. This 
means I'm now stuck with using the newer kaa libraries that crash it, 
although the prompt command still works ok. It did the exact same thing, 
and here's what was in it the log the 2nd time:

Not amazingly helpful. Any more clues?
