Marlaina, indeed you need at least pygtk 2.5.0. You could correct the error you have with > File "/usr/share/gramps/GrampsWidgets.py", line 122, in IconButton > def __init__(self, func, handle, icon=gtk.STOCK_EDIT, > AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'STOCK_EDIT' by opening that file and replacing STOCK_EDIT by eg STOCK_FIND, as here http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-Stock-Items.html#GTK-STOCK-EDIT:CAPS its shows that the STOCK_EDIT icon is from a more recent gtk 2.6 version. However, probably another error will pop up once you solve this one. Upgrading pygtk would be a major difficulty I think, you better don't consider it (it will depend on recent GTK, which will depend on ....). CentOS is a server linux distribution (copy of red hat), having the latest desktop packages is not so important for red hat, stability is. As a normal desktop user not needing the server applications, you are better of with Fedora, opensuse or ubuntu. Upgrading to a more recent distribution is an easier path, if that is available for you. (note that centOS 5 should be released soon, as new redhat was released recently). Otherwise, you can wait a bit. I think with Ubuntu Feisty (beginning of april), Alex will release a new genealogy live cd, with 2.2.6 on it. You could try that. Actually, you can try the present live cd (http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Linux_Genealogy_CD), but that has an older GRAMPS version on it (2.0.1 ??)
