system-config tools fail to start
 

Hi,

after my last update today most of the system-config tools fail to start, also up2date
won´t start anymore:
here is the error output.

Component: system-config-network
Version: 1.3.15
Summary: TBb23b20f8 exception.py:209:__init__:ImportError: No module named gnome.ui
Traceback (most recent call last):

----Up2date error-------
up2date
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 1267, in ?
sys.exit(main() or 0)
File "/usr/sbin/up2date", line 880, in main
from up2date_client import gui
File "gui.py", line 20, in ?
ImportError: No module named gnome

I know that it has something to do with python, but i don´t know exactly what i have to do.

thx

Two things you can do.
One is to file a bug report at bugzilla and the other is to use command line

# ntsysv

which does the same thing. :)

I know this is alittle late but for anyone else who might have trouble with this:

edit your /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources

and pick a mirror from http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors.html

save and run.


//Edit

oh and if you get the same error again....pick another mirror ;-)
