Caffeine 2.4.1 doesn't start, ubuntu oneiric

[zvi]

When I attempt to run caffeine from the command line, I get the errors.

ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for AppIndicator3
ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for Notify
Please install pynotify
ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for Notify
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/caffeine", line 40, in <module>

    from gi.repository import Gtk, GObject, Gio, Notify
ImportError: cannot import name Notify

I noticed that I was not loading caffeine before I upgraded to the latest version, but I'm not sure exactly when.

After reading the error log, I attempted to sudo apt-get install pynotify, but there was no such package available. I do have python-notify installed, version 0.1.1-2ubuntu2

If you need more error logs, please let me know where to get them or how to run them.

Quick fix by installing:

gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1
gir1.2-notify-0.7

This packages should be marked as dependencies.

Hope it helps.

ddephazz (vapula31), thanks, installing this packages solve the problem for me with packages, but I got another errors:

Maybe any additional packages must be installed?

Last problem fixed via upgrading caffeine from ppa:caffeine-developers/ppa - version from ubuntu oneric shows this error.

The same problem was with 12.10 64-bit and solved by instructions by: ddephazz (vapula31) wrote on 2011-12-25.

[Reuben Thomas (rrt)]

Fixed by adding dependencies to the 2.5 package.
