Gwibber does not run on my Lucid config (not a fresh one)

[Yann Lossouarn]

Gwibber does not run on my Ubuntu Lucid setup. It's not not a fresh install, but the conf resulting of successive updates of a 6.06 Dapper setup. Here's the end of the log I see when trying to launch it through interactive shell.

It does not run from the session notification applet, neither from the shell... :/

gwibber dont seem to work well on an upgraded system. for example I used gwibber on two different machines and then upgraded to maverick not it dont work on both. on the other hand it works flawlessly on a clean install system. except for a few gwibber bugs but in those cases gwibber starts atleast. you maybe seeing bug 522538.
