[Blink] 'ContactURI' object has no attribute 'object' / no _sha1 / no _rfb

[Casey Jones]

On Arch Linux, after compiling the latest Blink from the darcs 
repository it crashes on start with:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
       File "/usr/bin/blink", line 30, in <module>
         from blink import Blink
       File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blink/__init__.py", line

       File

    21, in <module>
         from sipsimple.util._sha1 import sha1
    ImportError: No module named _sha1

I tried installing the sha1 module with pip, but that didn't help. It 
looks like this module is missing from sipsimple, which is strange, 
because I'm pretty sure I had previously compiled sipsimple from the 
same 2.6.0 tarball as I just did... but there is some difference between 
the two resulting packages, because if I revert to the one I rolled 
earlier, I get the following error instead:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
       File "/usr/bin/blink", line 30, in <module>
         from blink import Blink
       File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blink/__init__.py", line

    line 15, in <module>
    ImportError: No module named _rfb

I had previously compiled Blink and all its dependencies and everything 
had been working fine for quite a while, but I think my attempts to run 
a newer version somehow screwed up my config file, because I started 
having trouble making calls and adding contacts, and now when I try to 
use my old config, Blink just hammers my CPU and segfaults at start. I 
tried starting fresh by deleting my ~/.blink directory and downgrading 
back to the previously working packages, but this still doesn't seem to 
properly regenerate a new address book, since I get this error shortly 
after starting:

    AttributeError: 'ContactURI' object has no attribute 'object'

Any ideas about what to try next? For now I've had to switch to LinPhone.

Thanks for any help,
Casey
