The vital stats:
Mythbuntu 10.10 (maverick)
XBMC 11 -- from team-xbmc maverick ppa
Mythtv 0.23.1+fix (the standard version for mythbuntu 10.10)
Mythbox version 1.1.0

OK, so, I was happily going along running XBMC 10.1 on my HTPC setup, and I saw everyone was all excited about XBMC 11, and it was available from the PPA.

Now, when I go into mythbox and select a recording, it shows me the following error message box:

Error: oninit

cannot import name decodeLongLong

This only seems to affect its ability to show a thumbnail picture for the recording. When I start playing the recording, everything pretty much goes fine.

What does this error message mean? Is there any way I can fix it? Is there a library I am missing or something?
