$ cat /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ViewerFramework/VF.py | grep
ViewerFrameworkGUI
    from ViewerFramework.VFGUI import ViewerFrameworkGUI
            self.GUI = ViewerFrameworkGUI(self, title=title,

see there is a ViewerFrameworkGUI in the VF.py script.

well... before due to historical reason, when you have python2.6
there, there is a VF.py
this one use ViewerFramework(self, ...) which why the wrong message
saying: global name 'ViewerFrameworkGUI' is not defined

VF.py which is linked to /usr/share/pyshared/ViewerFramework/VF.py

I guess it's related to the update of VF.py (might be wrong)

you may remove all python and tried to monitor the VF.py under
/usr/share/pyshared/ViewerFramework/ when some version of python was
installed.
