Hm. That's the same error JT had the other day. Unfortunately, you can't 
solve it by installing the debian packages ;). 

I'm not sure what the problem is. I cannot really imagine that it is a 
problem with the data file, but it might well be the case. Cirrus, can you 
check that?

As for tracking down the problem, there are several things you can do:
Configure Adonthell with the --enable-py-debug switch. Make clean and remake. 
Then see whether a more detailed error message comes up.

You can also try to run adonthell with the -g option and the path to the 
wastesedge-0.3.1 directory. If there is a problem with the python bytecode of 
the installed data, this should work then.

And please tell us what version of Python you use.

Anyone any further ideas?
