Bug Description

After upgrade from feisty to gutsy I can't start programs like miro, deluge, PenguinTV etc. I get allways a similar __init__.py:48 error. The re-installation of Python2.5 didn't help.

Here is the error on miro start:
/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:48: RuntimeWarning: tp_compare didn't return -1 or -2 for exception
  from gtk import _gtk

By the way, I tried also newer and older versions of miro - with the same error output.

I' m really sorry, but few days ago I reinstalled my ubuntu and upgraded
to hardy. It was just to annoying for me. Now everything works grate.
So therefore I can not give you information you asked. My updates came
always from official german // repository
/http://de.archive.ubuntu.com// . I just wondering that there is no
more user reports with similar problems.
However thank you for your work and sorry that I can't help you in this
case.
