[et-mgmt-tools] No module named glib

[Nick Couchman]

Hmm...so why doesn't using the "--no-dbus" option make a difference?  Also, would things be better if I go back to previous versions?  I've tried using virt-manager 0.3.2 and get the following error, instead:
TypeError: basicConfig() takes no arguments (5 given)
 
Looking at the 0.3.2 readme file, the RHEL4 packages still don't quite meet those requirements, so maybe it's still something to do with that??
 
Thanks,
Nick

RHEL-4 ships with an old version of dbus which just isn't going to work
in the slightest. Upgrading dbus on RHEL-4 is also not practical because
it impacts core system daemon. Probably your only semi-practical option 
is to remove/comment out the dbus stuff in virt-manager, but then you 
loose functionality for integrating with the host network when creating
new guests & virtual networks
