However the gi module provides access to GTK+3, and it's quite likely Chris's project requires GTK+2, and would probably take some work to port from GTK+2 to GTK+3, though in the long run it's worth the effort. Anyway the GTK+2 module for python is usually called pygtk in the repos. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
