[Bug 753351] Re: PidginScreenlet: doesnt recognize Pidgin

 

Hello bauwan,

please check latest version from the dev ppa as I have fixed the
   ERROR:dbus.connection:Exception in handler for D-Bus signal
error that I can see in your logs.

Title:
  PidginScreenlet: doesnt recognize  Pidgin

Status in Screenlets — individual widgets development:

Status in Pidgin-Screenlet:
  New

Bug description:
  Since a week i have serious troubles with the pidgin-screenlet in Ubuntu 10.10 on two machines. I had the dev-ppa installed and got informed in irc that i should take the stable ppa. So I purged all packages and even made ppa-purge and installed the stable ppa, screenlets and pidgin-screenlet.
  When i start screenlets manager and pidgin-screenlet it appears like it should and shows "pidgin not running". When i start pidgin now an go online nothing changes. When i manually change something in the screenlet (eg showing offline buddies) everything (also the online buddies) is shown correctly. Going offline afterwards is being ignored again.

  If I try to start the screenlet from terminal with python
  /usr/share/screenlets/Pidgin/PidginScreenlet.py nothing visible
  happens.

  One thing is strange too: although a purged everything and deleted
  .screenlets-folder in my home the pidgin screenlet appeared at first
  start in the same place on my desktop where it has been all the time
  and not the normal start-place on top-left side.

  Further information and terminal output in the attachment. I really
  love the pidgin-screenlet and would be very very happy to get it
  running again. Of course i can provide any further information and
  test you may need, just ask.
