I manage to solve the problem by going into /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gwibber/lib/__init__.py and errasing the comment in line number 8

Ken has fixed this in trunk, patch attached if anyone wants it (it just indents the docstring).

It configured with the patch, but now Gwibber does not start at all. When running from terminal I get this:

This docstring doesn't exist in the Lucid version of the package so I'm marking the gwibber (Ubuntu) bug task as Invalid.

[Alessandro Lanave (ingalex)]

patch works fine for me.
