py-gtk2 - 2.10.4 - error in package

[charme_de_nuit-1@…]

I'm trying to get the latest version of Guido van Robot working on my G4 eMac running OS 10.5.1. It requires py-gtk2, which I've installed using Port Authority. However, even though Port Authority thinks it's installed ok, when I try to use it to run GvR I'm out of luck. Not being very command line savvy, I first posted my problems on the GvR listserv. They looked at my terminal output and concluded:

Here GvRng tries to import GTK but that fails due to an error in the macport PyGTK package, the rest of the messages are related to the problem in that package :-(

So I'm reporting this bug to you, in the hopes that you can fix it :)

Macintosh:gvr_ng-1.9.1 noxlady$ sudo ./setup

-------- Installing Guido van Robot Next Generation ---------
Trying to compiling modules to bytecode.
Installation complete.
To start Guido van Robot -> gvrng [Enter]
Be sure to check the website http://gvr.sf.net, for additional information
and lessons.

Enjoy

As you can see, however, MacPorts really thinks that I have py-gtk2 correctly installed:
