Comment 33 for bug 343215

Hi, this bug "reappeared" suddenly yesterday, pybootchartgui cannot generate a .png for some .tgz, the error reported is

For some .tgz it works (if I run pybootchartgui XXX it can generate a .png) but for some others files it fails.

I've the last version of bootchart/pybootchart with Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04, 64-bit.
I've using a custom vanilla kernel 2.6.33.3.

I attach two files, one that can be translated into .png and one that can not.
