Take the 2-minute tour ×  I'm trying to go through the simple-
player tutorial. Everything seems okay, after resolving the
gtk.RESPONSE_OK and quickly.prompts problems, I reach the part
where one starts messing around with goocanvas.  Unfortunately,
import goocanvas causes $ quickly run to throw:    import
gobject._gobject   from gtk import _gtk   from gtk import _gtk
After which the application exits.  With the other errors, it
suggests to me that the tutorial and the goocanvas library are
both out of date and not cooperating with the new gtk+3/gobject
stuff. If this is the case, could someone please refer me to
alternatives? Many thanks in advance.  I am running 64 bit
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.  share|improve this question add comment
