blogtk install on Ubuntu: missing library gtkhtml2

[Mehmet Gencer]

When I install and start blogtk on Ubuntu it fails at "import gtkhtml2"

[Jonathan (jfoucher-gmail)]

That happens to me on the Natty beta. Is that your case, Mehmet?

Just installed blogtk on natty beta, and saw the above issue.

==> blogtk
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/blogtk", line 14, in <module>
    import gtkhtml2
ImportError: No module named gtkhtml2

If I try to intall python-gtkhtml2 here is what i see:

Package python-gtkhtml2 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'python-gtkhtml2' has no installation candidate

I can confirm that his bug appears on fresh Natty install using Gnome3

The packaged version is hopeless and should be abandoned.

BloGTK2 on the other hand, works well and is easy to install.

I needed two of the python dependencies. Running blogtk2 from the command line will tell you what you are missing incrementally. They were listed in the README.

It was fairly easy to connect to my Drupal website.

The process is described here - http://ls.net/content/portable-blogging-tool-blogtk

Spoke too soon. I went back to edit posts and get "An error occurred: "categories". Is there a later version of blogtk2? BloGTK2 is the most attractive of the blog posters for Ubuntu. It doesn't work for me.
