UPDATE: Thanks to Karl-Lattimer, the problem was solved by:
# rm /usr/bin/python
# ln -s /usr/bin/python2.5 /usr/bin/python

Verify that there is no "gtk" in your PYTHONPATH, and verify that there is no directory named "gtk" in your "."!
Have a nice day,

Try launching it with 'python -v -v'. It'll print debugging output for loading modules, including what it's trying to find where. It may help you track down why one fails while the other succeeds.
seems like you're using a debian sid because of your python2.4 version 2.4.5.
in a recent sid installation the default python version is already 2.5.2, so I'm pretty sure an 'apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade' will help you.
otherwise try to reinstall python-gtk2 and try to locate the _gtk.so files via 'dpkg -L python-gtk2|grep gtk\.so'
so long

What is the contents of your sys.path before and after running pygtk.require(2.0) ? In both cases there should be '/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/gtk-2.0' which is the place where the gtk module is to be found.
