Plugin failed to load

rndeon opened this issue 8 years ago · comments

I'm on ubuntu 14.04, RB 3.0.2.
I ran RB in debug mode and got this when trying to click the plugin checkbox from the menu.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 2158, in _find_spec
AttributeError: 'DynamicImporter' object has no attribute 'find_spec'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: cannot import name GConf, introspection typelib not found
(rhythmbox:3227): libpeas-WARNING **: Error loading plugin 'playlists_ie'

Any ideas?
Thanks!

Do you have gconf and python gconf installed ? (I'm not sure what the exact package names in ubuntu are, but it should be something like libgconf-python)

I have the same problem with Ubuntu 16.04, RB 3.3. I have many gconf packages installed as well as libgconf-2-4 and python-gconf. Thanks.

I just checked, I do have python-gconf installed. with libgconf-2-4

It looks like some library isn't installed. I cannot reproduce the issue, so I'm having trouble figuring it out. Try checking if you have all the packages for Gio, GObject, Peas, RB, GConf, Gtk (libraries and python bindings). And I'll ping @fossfreedom if he has any idea.

probably gir1.2-gconf-2.0 needs to be installed?

Martanus · Answer 7 · Tue Jun 07 2016 03:21:44 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Thanks! That's it.

sudo apt install gir1.2-gconf-2.0

Yup, that's it. Thank you
