[Bug 1275223] [NEW] nvidia-settings seems to need python-gtk2 when using nvidia-prime

 

Public bug reported:

Hello,

On a fresh and updated install of Kubuntu 14.04 LTS (developpement
version) with yesterday's CD image on a computer which has nVidia
Optimus, I installed the nvidia proprietary driver with the jockey-kde
graphical user interface. It did install nvidia-settings. However, when
trying to switch between graphic cards with the Prime settings from the
nvidia-settings interface, it printed a Traceback relative to some gtk
dependency missing. Installing the python-gtk2 package solved the
problem.

Maybe python-gtk2 should be a dependency of nvidia-xsettings?

Cheers,
Raphaël.
