Re: [Gramps-users] gramps 3.1.1-1 on ubuntu 9.04

[Gerald B. <ger...@gm...>]

Try modifying the startup script in /usr/bin/gramps.  Change the line:

    exec /usr/bin/python -O $GRAMPSDIR/gramps.py "$@"

to:

    exec /usr/bin/python2.5 -O $GRAMPSDIR/gramps.py "$@"

There are problems with python 2.6 on jaunty, but you should still
have 2.5 installed, which seems to work just fine (at least for me,
YMMV).
