New submission from Leo <elescargot at hotmail.com>:

I recently upgraded from python 2.3 to 2.5. But idle doesn't launch
anymore, either with right-clicking a .py program an doing "edit with
IDLE" or with launching the idle.py file itself. 
When I launch idle with the command line, it gives the following error
several times:

Warning : configHandler.py - IdleConf.GetThemeDict- 
problem retrieving theme element 'buitlin-foreground'
from theme 'vert theme'
returning default value: '#000000'

Warning : configHandler.py - IdleConf.GetThemeDict- 
problem retrieving theme element 'buitlin-background'
from theme 'vert theme'
returning default value: '#ffffff'
