Bug Description

Upgraded purple per PPA, tried to start it and got the following error message:

steve@benu:~$ purple
Creating new instance
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/purple", line 481, in <module>
    window = PurpleWindow()
  File "/usr/bin/purple", line 63, in __new__
    builder = get_builder('PurpleWindow')
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/purple/helpers.py", line 40, in get_builder
    ui_filename = get_data_file('ui', '%s.ui' % (builder_file_name,))
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/purple/purple_config.py", line 45, in get_data_file
    return os.path.join(get_data_path(), *path_segments)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/purple/purple_config.py", line 62, in get_data_path
    raise project_path_not_found
purple.purple_config.project_path_not_found

Tried to remove purple and re-install it, but it wouldn't start either. I'm using Ubuntu Maverick.

Ah, something must've gotten messed uploading to launchpad, as I'm running a deb of it built locally just fine here. Looking into this now.

Was an warning/error with Quickly that I overlooked. Fix pushed to PPA, should populate fully in an hour or so. Thanks for reporting this.
