Mirek,

Thanks for this patch.  I applied it and was able to compile.

I'm having problems running audit-viewer and it appears that I am 
missing some packages like python-gtkextra, PyChart, and sexy-python.  I 
don't have them available on RHEL 5.2 (or 5.3 for that matter) and have 
been trying to compile them.

I am working on python-gtkextra-1.1.0 and have gtkextra compiled and 
installed.  When I work on the python-gtkextra I get the following:
# make
Making all in gtkextra
make[1]: Entering directory 
`/data/master/software/audit/audit-viewer/python-gtkextra-1.1.0/gtkextra'
(cd . \
     && /usr/bin/python ./mycodegen.py \
        --register /usr/share/pygtk/2.0/defs/pango-types.defs \
        --register /usr/share/pygtk/2.0/defs/gdk-types.defs \
        --register /usr/share/pygtk/2.0/defs/gtk-types.defs \
        --override gtkextra.override \
        --prefix pygtkextra gtkextra.defs) > gen-gtkextra.c \
    && cp gen-gtkextra.c gtkextra.c \
    && rm -f gen-gtkextra.c
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./mycodegen.py", line 16, in ?
    codegen.codegen.main()
TypeError: main() takes exactly 1 argument (0 given)
make[1]: *** [gtkextra.c] Error 1

I'm guessing  that the problem is that 1.1.0 requires python 2.5+ like 
audit-viewer.
Does anyone know if this is true?
Has anyone tried to get audit-viewer working on RHEL5.2?
Any pointers?  I think I'm stuck at this point.

Dan
