python-gtk: GtkCList.clear() problem

[Igor Stroh]

Hi there,

did anyone ever had this kind of problem with GtkCList.clear():
the function is called from a thread that get's the appropriate widget on
creating. Inserting and deleting rows works fine, but if I call .clear -
nothing happens... I tried to use .clear inside of .freeze - .thaw()
(which is obviously useless) with the same result though... calling
.clear from the main programm (e.g. by bindig it to a button) works as
desired... any suggestions?

TIA,
Igor
