PyUnicodeUCS2_ I'm stumped

I noticed after an upgrade that my RedHat config utilities would not run. 
I've futzed with this quite a bit, and I've narrowed the problem down, but
I'm really unsure as to how to proceed.

Specifically, the problem is this:
[root@hostname /]# python
Python 2.2.3 (#1, Mar  8 2004, 22:56:40)
[GCC 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-20)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import gtk
Traceback (most recent call last):

gnome-python2-bonobo-1.99.14-5
libxml2-python-2.5.10-6

This box has been through a great deal of upgrades over the years.  If I
recall correctly, it started life as a RH 7.1 box, then was upgraded to
7.2, 7.3, 8.0 (I don't remember if 9 was ever installed) then Whitebox,
and now CentOS.  Not to mention hard disk, motherboard, and video
upgrades, too.

Can anyone help me troubleshoot?  I've tried removing and force installing
the correct RPMs. (I can post the script I used, if interested) and I just
can't think of any other way to find the fix.

One other possible hint:  If I do a 'locate pygtk2' I see this as a part
of the output:
/usr/share/doc/pygtk2-1.99.16/ChangeLog
AND I see
/usr/share/doc/pygtk2-1.99.12/ChangeLog

So it looks like I may have some leftovers of 1.99.12 - could that be
related?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Regards,
Tom
