[postgis-users] mezoGIS problems

[Stephen Davies]

G'day.

I have installed MezoGIS on my Linux system (home made; no distro) with 
the latest version I could find of all dependencies.

If I run it as an ordinary user, I get:

bash-3.1$ mezogis.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/mezogis.py", line 14, in ?
    from mezoGISlib import PGButler
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mezoGISlib/__init__.py", 
line 18, in ?
    from _guicore import PGButler
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mezoGISlib/_guicore.py", 
line 22, in ?
    import gtk
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py", 
line 38, in ?
    from _gtk import *
ImportError: /usr/local/lib/libpangoft2-1.0.so.0: undefined symbol: 
g_intern_static_string


If I run it as root, it starts up OK but when I try to connect to a 
database,  I get:

bash-3.1# mezogis.py
Another module named "tesselate" is already in use.
load "/usr/local/share/mezogis/plugins/tesselate.py"
Could not load plugins:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/.mezogis/plugins'
FATAL:  database "root" does not exist

[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/.mezogis/history'
Exception in thread Thread-1:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/threading.py", line 442, in __bootstrap
    self.run()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mezoGISlib/_dbtools.py", 
line 86, in run
    row = c.fetchone()
  File 
"/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/GeoTypes/_PsycopgInit.py", line 
92, in __call__
    if ord(s[0]) < 32:
TypeError: unsubscriptable object

The first error looks like a permissions thing but I can't see where.
The second error says nothing to me. Any ideas?
