Since I was using a Debian sid chroot:

pergolesi!joey(pts/0):/tmp/joey/thuban> dpkg -l python*|grep ^ii

pergolesi!joey(pts/0):/tmp/joey/thuban>

On that host it works as a charm.

To which part of the code are you referring?

Like I said, it worked for me, which makes me wonder why it doesn't
for you.

Also, at home I already use Python 2.3 from sid (but together with
wxWidgets 2.4) to run Thuban, so it does already work with 2.3.
