Description Casual J. Programmer 2008-12-08 13:21:44 UTC 
After installing openSUSE 11.1 RC1 from DVD both, python3 and python 2.6 are present. Only 3 seems to come with bsddb, while 2.6 is lacking it. According to the gramps-devel list this is a shortcoming in packaging.

Invoking Gramps from a terminal yields:

gramps
