this is a bug in cw (now fixed). It occurs when it tries to tell you
that some directory in your cubes search path doesn't exist.

If you want a quick fix for the bug, just replace 'self' by 'cls' on
line 331 of /home/hb/cubicweb/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cubicweb/cwconfig.py

You should not see this error on a proper environment. I suspect the 
usage of local installation being responsible, unless you've defined
a custom CW_CUBES_PATH which contains an unexistant directory. To fix 
this:

* export CW_MODE=user
* mkdir /home/hb/cubicweb/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cubes
* touch /home/hb/cubicweb/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cubes/__init__.py
* eventually, export CW_CUBES_PATH=an_existant_directory_with_your_own_cubes
