Same here. I have never got this working under fedora.

When reporting a bug upstream they tend to insist on copies of these logs, so
maybe worth keeping it in there?

I noticed upstream have been working on porting python 2.6.4 to xbmc. Is anyone
working with them to ensure that the external Fedora python will work?
Currently if you build with external python (as required by Fedora) then python
based plugins (i.e. most plugins) fail to work. It would seem to be a good time
to encourage upstream to ensure xbmc will work with Fedora python as the
plugins are heavily used.
