BT++ 0.3.0 is ok but not 0.4 and 0.5

[Pierre Mazière]

I've discovered BT++ with 0.5.0, but it didn't work on my linux box (python 2.2.1, wxPython 2.4.0.6, wxGTK)
So i tried 0.4.0 with the same results, and then 0.3.0 which worked fine

I get this message with 0.4.0 and 0.5.0:
TabTrans/Renderer.py:22: DeprecationWarning: Use Python's False instead
  wxFONTENCODING_SYSTEM )
TabTrans/Grid.py:38: DeprecationWarning: Use Python's False instead
  wxFONTENCODING_SYSTEM ),

and then nothing, back to the prompt

could someone give me a clue?

thanks

see the BT++ Under RH8 thread.

i've already thought of doing what is said there, but it doesnt change the fact that nothing is launched: it directly come back to the prompt after the creation of the incoming, temp and torrent directories.

I admit I also can't get BT to work since updating to wxPython 2.4.0.6, sorry.

I get the same behavior as the other posters.  A little pause, then nothing is launched.  I've tried 0.5.3 and CVS from today, they just don't work... no errors, no warnings, just nothing.  0.3.0 works fine, so does the original BT client along with other wxPython programs such as Boa Constructor.

Using mandrake9.1
python 2.2
wxPythonGTK 2.4.0.6

     checker = wxSingleInstanceChecker( "BitTorrent++ - " + wxGetUserId() )
-    if checker.IsAnotherRunning() == false:
-        app = App()
-        app.MainLoop()
+    #if checker.IsAnotherRunning() == false:
+    app = App()
+    app.MainLoop()

Remove the lines with minuses in front and add the ones with pluses.  This gets the app almost running, but there are no icons/buttons.

The problem extends from exSingleInstanceChecker in 2.4.0.6 version of wxWindows on linux.  The program seems to be using the class correctly.
