Fwd: gnome-dvb-control: TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'icon_widget'

[David Spicer <azleifel gmail com>]

Hi,

We're seeing problems with gnome-dvb-control - tested with versions 0.2.7 and 0.2.8 - on Arch Linux:

$ gnome-dvb-control
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gnome-dvb-control", line 26, in <module>
    w = ControlCenterWindow(model)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gnomedvb/ui/controlcenter/ControlCenterWindow.py", line 64, in __init__
    self.__create_toolbar()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gnomedvb/ui/controlcenter/ControlCenterWindow.py", line 267, in __create_toolbar
    self.button_display_timers = Gtk.ToolButton(icon_widget=timers_image, label=_("Recording schedule"))
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'icon_widget'

and I can find bug reports with the same error, but no resolution, for Ubuntu and Debian.

One user has created a patch that works around the problem (attached) and allows gnome-dvb-control to start but I'm not certain that this is a bug in gnome-dvb-control.   Arch's versions of gnome-dvb-daemon's UI dependencies are:

• Python =  2.7.3

• pygobject = 3.2.0

• gobject-introspection = 1.32.1
