Information Icon Won't Go Away

[Ian Clark]

After installing music-related software (muse score, note edit, song write), Ubuntu Gutsy gave me an information icon that reads like this:

"SoundFont required
A package has been installed that requires a SoundFont. SoundFonts enable your system to synthesize audio. Currently, there is only one GM SoundFont included in Ubuntu, via the "fluid-soundfont-gm" package, so it is recommended you install that.
Alternatively, you can download SoundFonts, which may not necessarily be freely distributable, from HammerSound: <http://www.hammersound.net/cgi-bin/soundlink.pl>"

I did an apt-get install fluid-soundfont-gm. I then took several hours to download the package.

I expected this to clear the need for this information icon, but now every time I log on to Ubuntu I get the same information icon.

I installed 3 music programs at once, so I can't be totally sure this bug is related to note edit.

Hi Ian,
Did you solved the problem? I'm having the same problem with Hardy

[Ian Clark (blacktuzi)]

Yes, it's mostly solved. I switched my server in sources to one which seems to have a more complete repository, then did an apt-get update. I noticed many of the updates were with firefox. Now I don't get the light bulb all the time, but it still shows up sometimes.
