I think that's correct - the older version from meta-oe does not have a 
hard failure if pygobject isn't working. I can't help you with the error 
itself that python is printing; you need to dig into the point in the 
code where it happens and take it from there.

Generally, calling host python to establish (via module import) if 
pygobject is available for the target is incorrect, you can simply patch 
configure.ac to remove the check. That wouldn't however fix the 
underlying problem (that of host pygobject being broken).
