I recently upgraded my machine to Fedora Core 2, and now positron doesn't work anymore (with python 2.3). I get the error message...

[root@krazykat root]# positron
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/positron", line 23, in ?
from positron.config import Config
ImportError: No module named positron.config

...which is kinda depressing. I tried doing a symbolic link to put the positron modules in a place that python 2.3 could get to them, and I get...
[root@krazykat root]# positron add /home/share/mpg/8b09dc09
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/positron", line 200, in ?
main(sys.argv)
File "/usr/bin/positron", line 182, in main
cmd.run(config, myNeuros, remaining[1:])
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/positron/cmd_add.py", line 44, in run
audio_db = neuros.open_db("audio")
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/positron/neuros.py", line 167, in open_db
self.db_formats[name]["no_flatten"])
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/positron/db/WOID.py", line 98, in open
child.open(child_root, (), ())
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/positron/db/WOID.py", line 75, in open
mdb.set_extra_format(extra_format)
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/positron/db/MDB.py", line 134, in set_extra_format
raise Error("Number of format strings does not equal number of extra info fields.")
positron.db.util.Error: Number of format strings does not equal number of extra info fields.

...which is even uglier. Is there something special I have to do to get this to work?

well, positron is outdated so you might just want to try Sorune or NDBM.

So positron is pretty much unsupported now? Because I prefer it to the GUI tools.

Both Sorune and NeurosDBM can be used from the command-line without the GUI if you so prefer.

Yes, positron is pretty much unsupported, and has been for many months.
