porteus settings centre broken? (solved)

[cuttyshark]

Hi, I recently installed porteus 5.01 on usb stick. Works very good and fast, thanks.
The only thing I did was create some modules and placed them in the modules directory, they are activated and work fine.
But in a way I broke the porteus settings centre I think, it doesn't start and when I start it from the command line I get this error:


porteus-settings-centre
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/porteus-settings-centre", line 7, in <module>
import gi
ImportError: No module named gi

however if I boot with the entry: 'always fresh' the porteus setting centre works as it should.
Any solution for this?

Hmm, it looks like a /usr/bin/python symlink leading to python3 is replaced by some module with symlink leading to python2 executable?

Do this (as root):

Code: Select all

ln -sf python3 /usr/bin/python

Thanks i3slkiller, that was the solution, tested after that all the modules I installed and they still all work fine
