[Bug 792355] Re: gwibber don't start after the latest update

 

The latest version is 3.1.90, we don't have anyone maintaining the
website.  3.1.x won't work on lucid, in case that is what you are
running.   It requires gtk3, which would be pretty hard to get on lucid.
I would suggest not using the daily ppa for lucid.
