Sigh. Why didn't anyone file a bug with PyGtk? (A rhetorical question: I know you don't know either.)

OK, the easy way to do this is to edit the source (if you just took the defaults, it will be in ~/gtk/source/pygtk-2.16.0/ somewhere),
then start a jhbuild shell, cd to pygtk-2.16.0, and do make and make install. If you've made a bundle, you'll need to do that over to get the new libpygtk into it. (Don't just copy it in: the bundle script adjusts rpaths too.)

If you're a regular on the GRAMPS list, do ask Mr. Williams to file a bug report. These things don't get fixed if no one reports them.
