This is almost certainly a problem with python or the gtk/gnome bindings.
Try starting python and importing modules:
$ python
import gtk
import gnome
import gconf
import gtkspell
My results:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ python
Python 2.3.5 (#2, Aug 30 2005, 14:54:21)
[GCC 4.0.2 20050821 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.1-6)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import gtk
>>> import gnome
>>> import gconf
>>> inport gtkspell
>>> import gtkspell
Segmentation fault

If the modules all imported without problems, run gdb on python and
then run gramps:
$ gdb /usr/bin/python
(gdb) run /usr/share/gramps/gramps.py

If, as I suspect, this is a problem with gtkspell, you can still use
gramps by uninstalling gtkspell.

libgtkspell0 has too many dependencies to uninstall.

But the problem has been resolved with the the latest dist-upgrade which
upgraded  "python-gnome2-extras" and "python2.3-gnome2-extras".
So it looks like this bug report can be closed.

Thanks for your help,
Jim
