#16 Error while exportng rib, possibly due to absolute paths
After compiling
cgkit-2.0.0alpha8.tar.gz
on a Linux Slackware 12 box, when trying to render with pixie an imported obj file (that I'm able to preview) I get the following message
TM_faces/3D_models> render.py -v --renderer=pixie Roby.obj

I have seen that before and I think it is a bug in PyProtocols. This problem does not occur when you use the pure Python version of PyProtocols which you can install by passing a special option to the setup script of PyProtocols (I think it was called NO-SPEEDUPS or something like this, have look at their docs).
I would recommend to contact the author of PyProtocols about this as well. If I get some time I will have a look at what exactly the problem is (it hasn't happened on earlier versions of PyProtocols) and maybe I can send them a patch. So for now, I will leave this bug report open even though it's not a bug in cgkit.
