Problem with Python and gi

[Lord Spectre]

When I try to run some GTK programs I keep getting errors about Python not finding the module gi.
I don't have a list of programs that give this error, but I think it's not a bug with those because I cannot import it from the Python interpreter either.
Some Internet forums say it's related to gobject-introspection and python-gobject: they are both installed and I already tried reinstalling without success.
Am I missing some dependencies?
Thanks for help

If you're running an app try and install libgirepository1.0_1 ... if you are compiling, try libgirepository-devel.

Please post back your results.

Both are already installed. Are you sure they provide the Python bindings too? They seem to be only libraries and header files, not Python modules.
