Bug Description

I can't seem to get gnomenu to work in docky on Xubuntu 12.04 64-bit. When I start the service a second later it switches to 'stopped' and it crashes. I followed the instructions in the Readme to install for 64-bit systems. Also, gnomenu does not show up in the list when I try to add it to the panel. When I issue the command 'gnomenu.py run-in-window I get the following message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/gnomenu/GnoMenu.py", line 26, in <module>
    from gi.repository import PanelApplet as gnomeapplet
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 23, in <module>
    from ._gi import _API, Repository
ImportError: could not import gobject (error was: ImportError('When using gi.repository you must not import static modules like "gobject". Please change all occurrences of "import gobject" to "from gi.repository import GObject".',))

Hope this helps.
