Hi, i tried adding a route myself:
# route|add
# address=192.168.3.0
# mask=255.255.255.0
# gateway=192.168.2.210|ok
I see the same python exception, ie it is repeatable on a different machine.

The best way to get it fixed is to search for it in bugzilla.redhat.com, 
and if not found create a new bug, attaching the exception trace.
