[Python-modules-team] Bug#584548: "pyglet.window.NoSuchConfigException: No standard config is available"

[Craig Sanders]

Package: python-pyglet
Version: 1.1.2.dfsg-2

pyglet doesn't seem to work at all.  get the above error message when
running anything that uses pyglet.

even the simple hello_world example doesn't run.

cas:/usr/share/doc/python-pyglet/examples/programming_guide$ ./hello_world.py 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./hello_world.py", line 44, in <module>
    window = pyglet.window.Window()
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/pyglet/__init__.py", line 307, in __getattr__
    __import__(import_name)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/pyglet/window/__init__.py", line 1682, in <module>

  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/pyglet/window/xlib/__init__.py", line 474, in __init__
    super(XlibWindow, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    raise NoSuchConfigException('No standard config is available.')
pyglet.window.NoSuchConfigException: No standard config is available.


environment is debian sid amd64, last updated today.  nvidia-glx 195.36.24-1


a shame. i want to learn python, and writing a simple game seemed a good
way to do it (i have no chance of learning by writing system utils -
long-ingrained perl and shell habit). i guess i'll try pygame next.
