[Bug 826557] Re: Built Gwibber 3.1.4.2 on Debian Sid but get Error calling StartServiceByName

After running service manually as below:

$ gwibber-service -do

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/myPath-to/bin/gwibber-service", line 29, in <module>
    from gwibber.microblog.util import log
ImportError: No module named gwibber.microblog.util

To solve the above, I remembered that gwibber searches for that resource
under python2.6/dist-packages/.  However, Debian installs gwibber under
python2.6/site-packages/

I moved /myPath-to/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gwibber into /myPath-
to/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/.

removed dir /myPath-to/lib/python2.6/site-packages

And made a sym link (since Debian apparently needs site-packages):

ln -s /myPath-to/lib/python2.6/dist-packages /myPath-to/lib/python2.6
/site-packages


And now gwibber starts *painfully* (after 4 minutes waiting for it to appear) with following errors:

(gwibber:32648): dee-CRITICAL **: No known GType for type name DeeSequenceModel

    raise ValueError('Namespace %s not available' % namespace)
ValueError: Namespace Wnck not available


I verified that Debian has python-wnck package

But Gwibber does not even refresh from the original (from the very first
time it started) timeline screen.

Title:
  Built Gwibber 3.1.4.2 on Debian Sid but get Error calling
  StartServiceByName

Status in Gwibber:
  New

Bug description:
  After downloading the following files from Ubuntu Oneiric:

  libdee-1.0-1_0.5.18-1ubuntu1_i386.deb
  libgtkspell3-0_2.0.16-1ubuntu2_i386.deb
  libdee-dev_0.5.18-1ubuntu1_i386.deb
  libgtkspell3-dev_2.0.16-1ubuntu2_i386.deb

  and installing under Debian Sid and subsequent apparently successful
  building gwibber, upon starting it from the shell, I get the following
  errors, ending with a segmentation fault:
