Hello Bill, Some newer Linux release have a newer version of this library than what Gramps asks for. Can you check whether you may have such a version on your Fedora 39. I ran into this issue on LMDE 6, which is based on Debian 12, and have very little experience with recent versions of Fedora, so…

I had forgotten about the prerequisites checker. Thanks for the reminder! It was already installed, so I just had to run it. It says that geocodeglib version 1.0 or higher is needed and is not found. ========= From prerequisites Checker =========== STRONGLY RECOMMENDED The following package…

In this screenshot, taken from Synaptic in Mint 21, you can see that I have two components installed: [Schermafdruk van 2023-11-10 19-59-39] The one shown at the top, which starts with gir, is a wrapper for the other one, where wrapper means that it wraps the code in the other one, so that it can…

And here’s that other thread: [image] Prerequisites installation is almost a different dialect Ideas The command and package name for installing prerequisite packages appears to vary by OS and for Linux, by distro. This is analogous to different dialects or languages. Is…

Hmmm … I find myself getting deeper and deeper! Fedora 39 has a package called “python3-gobject-devel” Supposedly it supplies files required to embed PyGObject. I installed the package but Gramps still throws an error. There are packages that mention “introspection” but none that looke like …

Fedora 39 might have a newer version, like Debian 12 has, and in that case, the require fails, because it’s looking for a version 1.0. Your package manager might give you more information about that version. It’s not the 3.something of the underlying library, and it may be visible in the name of rh…

From an interactive Python session, I ran this: ================ Python session =========== bgee@main2:~$ python Python 3.12.0 (main, Oct 2 2023, 00:00:00) [GCC 13.2.1 20230918 (Red Hat 13.2.1-3)] on linux Type “help”, “copyright”, “credits” or “license” for more information. import gi g…

If you want, you can skip the whole require version line, so that you just import gi, and then GeocodeGlib from gi. repository. Python will then import whatever version you have. In general, it helps to be a bit creative with the Fedora package manager, assuming that there is one that can do the sa…

I finally figured out how to get past the warning message. There are TWO .py files that have to be modified. I had been modifying only one of them. The change is to set gi.require_version() to 2.0 instead of 1.0. The two files are PlaceCoordinateGramplet.py Line 40 PlaceCoordinateGramplet.g…

OK, good to know. And now that you mention it, I remember a similar comment from a fellow developer, after I ran into the same problem with LMDE 6, which is based on Debian 12. Since there were problems with that, I returned to ubuntu based Mint 21.2, and never made those corrections.
