Launch crash: AppIndicator3 related

[LukasThyWalls]

I wanted to test the app (after testing glc with good feelings) but it doesn't start:

:~$ gamecaster
Menu tree is empty
root - ERROR - Could not find any typelib for AppIndicator3
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gamecaster", line 59, in <module>
    from gamecaster.gamecaster import MainWindow

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gamecaster/indicator.py", line 25, in <module>
    from gi.repository import AppIndicator3 as appindicator
ImportError: cannot import name AppIndicator3

I'm in KUbuntu 12.04.1 (KDE 4.8.5). If you need more information, tell me

Had this same issue, went through and did apt-cache search Appindicator3, looked at the packages available and installed gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1 - Typelib files for libappindicator3-1. This apparently fixed that issue, allowed gamecaster to run. Haven't tried recording anything yet, but this appears to be a dependancy issue and the above typelib files appears to have fixed it.

Kubuntu 12.04

Yes, with gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1 installed now the GUI works. Thank you.

You should complete the packages dependencies. Solved in my case

I'm having this issue in raring (daily) and that package was already installed. Can't solve it :/
