No, I switched to 2.7 months ago and it has worked fine since then. I noticed that python 2.7.2 also got installed yesterday, but reverting to 2.7.1-r1 does not change the behavior or the message. python-updater only complains about libreoffice-bin and emul-linux-x86-baselibs, probably because they contain their own binary copies of some non-2.7 python stuff. >> I have done several restarts, re-emerged all relevant >> packages (dbus, dbus-python, wicd) but still it stops shortly after >> clicking the connect button in the GUI window, saying "Disconnecting >> active connections..." in the status bar (even though no connections were >> active). > > Did you restart dbus?
