I'm unable to duplicate the problem but it seem to be related to the configparser module. It would be interesting to know what distribution and what python version the problem appear on.

I went through the code too and narrowed it down to the same thing you described. Maybe some recent Python version introduced some breakage into that external class.

------------------------------------------------------
What does ImportError mean?
It means that I couldn't load a python add-on guru.py
If this is a regular theme and doesn't use python
extensions, then nothing is wrong.

Drop me a PM, preferably with the content of your 'guru.conf', if that does not resolve the problem.
Thanks!

"karamba x=30 y=30 w=540 h=220 color=0,255,255 locked=false
IMAGE X=0 Y=0 PATH="pics/gnutheme.png"
defaultfont font="times" fontsize=12 color=0,0,0
text x=5 y=5 w=350 h=90 sensor=program program="fortune -n 150 -s" interval=60000"
with this solution you have the same theme with more stability....and if you want to do customizable the theme add comment to source...eg
#if you don't want the gnu change "gnutheme.png" with "nognu.png"....
but very great theme...great idea...

However, if clicking or scrolling on the theme, the theme will pick a new fortune. If waiting a while the theme automaticly picks a new fortune. But clicking/scrolling does not reset the timer for the automagic change of a fortune.
Otherwise... good one... ;-)

I haven't got around to really look into Plasma yet but the plasmoids looks exciting. :)
