Straw

I got this app called Straw (http://www.nongnu.org/straw/) which suppose to simply read RSS feeds from websites... Whenever I try to run it I get an error:

Code:

$ straw
Traceback &#40;most recent call last&#41;&#58;
  File "/usr/bin/straw", line 30, in ?
    import straw
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/straw/__init__.py", line 17, in ?
    from Main import Main
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/straw/Main.py", line 8, in ?
    import pygtk
ImportError&#58; No module named pygtk

I do have pygtk installed..

Code:

*  dev-python/pygtk
      Latest version available&#58; 2.0.0
      Latest version installed&#58; 2.0.0
      Size of downloaded files&#58; 514 kB
      Homepage&#58;    http&#58;//www.daa.com.au/~james/pygtk/
      Description&#58; GTK+2 bindings for Python

...

Code:

slip@***** slip $ python-config
-lpython2.3 -lm -L/usr/lib/python2.3/config
slip@***** slip $ straw
Traceback &#40;most recent call last&#41;&#58;
  File "/usr/bin/straw", line 30, in ?
    import straw
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/straw/__init__.py", line 17, in ?
    from Main import Main
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/straw/Main.py", line 8, in ?
    import pygtk
ImportError&#58; No module named pygtk

Anyone know what is wrong?

did you check to see if maybe the reference to pygtk is a typo? i.e. try to locate pygtk to see if the module name doesn't have a hyphen or underscore or other chars in it....
