Hello everyone,
Let me start by saying that I'm an Ubuntu/Linux n00b, so any help you might give me might need to be a little more detailed ;) Although I am a software engineer, I'm coming from a Windows world.
Now, onto the problem. This morning when I tried to launch the Update Manager from System->Administration, it wouldn't launch. So I tried launching from a Terminal window using "sudo update-manager". Here is my output:
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/update-manager", line 25, in <module>
import pygtk
ImportError: No module named pygtk
I went to Synaptic and looked at my Python packages, which are installed correctly. I did a little searching and it seems that if I were to install python-gobject that this would fix the problem. I already had it installed, but I reinstalled it. No effect.
So now I'm here, asking for help, because I don't know what I'm dong. :)
I'm running Ubuntu 8.04, Kernal 2.6.24-19-generic, x86_64.
Thanks for your support!
Brian
