I just checked in a fix - GrepDialog.py wasn't using relative imports.
I'm not sure why you hit this exception and I did't.  Probably a sys.path

Try again.

What platform are you using?  On

Linux trader 2.6.18-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Nov 19 09:14:35 CET 2006 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

(and whatever GvR is running)  IDLE isn't starting at all in py3k.
