Initial Comment:
Hello, 


I wanted to install Narval from (www.logilab.org)
I install Python 2.1 and i try to install pygtk.
And i get this error

Like i am a newbie it's perhaps nothing from python

Since there was no feedback on whether the proposed fix 
solves the problem, I close the report.

You should be using Python 2.1 to execute this code. As 
you can see, /usr/bin/python mkgtk.py is invoked, which 
probably is not 2.1. Make sure your Python installation is 
found before /usr/bin/python is.
