[AG-DEV] Certificate Management Tool crashes in Ubuntu 7.10

[Luis Galárraga]

I have installed AGTk 3.1 in two machines (one with Ubuntu Desktop 7.10 and
the other one Ubuntu Server 7.10 with Xfce) according to the instructions in
http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/research/accessgrid/software/debian/gutsy.html.
I could successfully run the Venue Client and ask for a user and a service
certificate (for a Venue Server). The certificate arrived two business days
later as pointed in the system, but when I chose Tools > Manage
Certificates, I saw the following debug message (taken from the first
machine. The problem is present in both):

Traceback (most recent call last):

I got the same when running CertificateManagement3.py from console. I would
like to know if it is a non-reported bug in order to report it as soon as
possible. If you know a possible quick solution (consisting maybe in
changing a configuration file, making changes in the code, etc.), I would
thank you expose it.
