Help needed with gettext.install

[Eric Martel]

Hi,

I'm using Mandrake Cooker and just upgraded Python to 2.3.3.

A Python-based program I use often is Pybliographer; since the Python 
update, I get the following error when trying to start Pybliographer:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/bin/pybliographer", line 40, in ?
     gettext.install (progname, localedir, unicode = True)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'install'

I don't know much about Python, but here is a Python session from the 
shell (for which I was inspired by something I found on Google):

Python 2.3.3 (#2, Feb 17 2004, 11:45:40)
[GCC 3.3.2 (Mandrake Linux 10.0 3.3.2-6mdk)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> import gettext
 >>> gettext.__dict__['textdomain']
<function textdomain at 0x403f7cdc>
 >>> gettext.__dict__['install']
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
KeyError: 'install'

So it really looks like the 'install' method is not available for the 
object 'gettext', while the method 'textdomain' is. I talked about it on 
a Cooker list, but no one was aware of what could cause this problem 
(and I was apparently the only one to experience it), so I'm asking to 
you guys: do you know what could be missing/wrong on my system to cause 
such an error?

Thank you!
