1 I seem to be having a deja vu with this application. It won't launch and when
2 started from a terminal it spews out this lot:

60 This problem exists with x86 and amd64 installations. I posted a bug, but a
61 dev kindly tested it and it worked fine on his system. So the bug was closed
62 with 'works for some'.
63
64 I've rebuilt dev-python/wxpython-3.0.2.0, as well as taskcoach itself, but it
65 still refuses to launch. Last time I recall having similar problems I ended
66 up removing TaskCoach.ini from the user's home directory and the application
67 was able to launch. This workaround won't work this time.
68
69 Can you see something above that can point me to a solution?
70
71 PS. Is there another application, which will work as well as taskcoach for
72 keeping a record of billing work and charges?
