mintupdate work when ran with sudo but not as normal user

[dYz]

Hi all,

I have a problem runnning mintupdate on a linux mint 17 with cinnamon. It does not start at login, so I tried to run from a terminal, which returned the following error:

Code: Select all

 
No module named gtk
No module named pygtk
mintUpdate(3319): Operation not permitted
mintUpdate: no process found
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/linuxmint/mintUpdate/mintUpdate.py", line 55, in <module>
    gettext.install("mintupdate", "/usr/share/linuxmint/locale")
NameError: name 'gettext' is not defined

If I run it with "sudo" prefixed it does start and return the terminal to use. I'm using anaconda python instead of the system default python, if that is important.

Any ideas or suggestions will be appriciated.
cheers,
dYz

It must be the result of using anaconda python as all 4 of my machines run well
