So, I've gone through the first steps in the sticky and made sure all of my packages were installed. But when I run playonlinux I get a whole mess pouring out of the command line shell:

The startup sequence keeps getting hung up on "line 86". These are lines 85 and 86 from plugins.lib (The library that's throwing the error).

#si la version du P est la même ou plus old que l'U on passe au plugin suivant
[ $Pversion -gt $Uversion ] || continue

My french isn't all that great, and my programming even worse. There's something going on here about comparing variables and piping or something. But that's as far as I've gotten.

Any help?

Ok, this is a problem, but it won't prevent POL from running.

You're real problem comes from the fact that wxpython is not installed on your system for python2.6

Okay. I'll go dig through the debian libraries and see if I can find a wxPython or python-wx for 2.6

edit:

So, it turns out that wxPython isn't in the main debian repositories, or at least it's not in mine. I downloaded the tar.gz from the wxPython website and unpacked it into a folder. After that, I went through the whole sequence of "./configure" then "make" then "make install".

Going down to reboot to see if that clears up the problems.

edit 2:

So I've got the wxPython core all installed and now I'm getting this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "mainwindow.py", line 30, in <module>
import wx
ImportError: No module named wx
Line 30 being the third line of execution in mainwindow.py So, perhaps I need to set an environment variable?

There's some commented out code just before line 30, and it looks familiar. It looks like the code that was involved in the other "too many arguments error" thread. But that was a different linux and possibly a different issue with python versions.

#try:
#     locale.getlocale()
#except:
#     os.environ["LANG"] = "en_US.utf-8"
#locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, '.utf-8')

edit 3:

I solved the line 30 problem. I went to this directory:

/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages

and modified a file named pygst.pth I appended two directory names into that file:

wx-2.6-gtk2-unicode
wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode

And now the POL scripts can find the wx module. However I have a new problem.

File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/lib/lng.py", line 5, in <module>
import wxversion
ImportError: No module named wxversion
lng.py is trying to import wxversion, but i have wxversion.py in my python folders. what do i do now?

edit 4:

Got it. I had my Lenny and Squeeze debian releases intermingling somehow. I went through the package manager and uninstalled wxversion for python. I dropped all my repositories except Squeeze, reinstalled, and now I'm working on configuring POL.

hope this helps anyone in the future. DONT MIX YOUR DEBIAN RELEASES and DONT MIX MANUAL AND MANAGER INSTALLATIONS. it's a pain in the ass XD
