Program does not start

[Jannis Menn]

I installed Transcribe on a Kubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) 64-Bit-system using the repository (ppa:frederik-elwert/transcribe).
When I try to start transcribe I get the following errormessage:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/transcribe", line 52, in <module>
    from transcribe import (
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/transcribe/PreferencesTranscribeDialog.py", line 17, in <module>
    from desktopcouch.records.server import CouchDatabase
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/desktopcouch/records/server.py", line 9, in <module>
    from desktopcouch.application.server import *
ImportError: No module named application.server

Thanks for the report!

Please try installing the package "python-desktopcouch-application". It seem this module was split into a separate package in Natty, but the dependencies were not updated accordingly (I’m building the packages on Lucid).

Since I’m currently not actually making use of desktopcouch (Quickly adds it by default), I could also just get rid of the import.

Thanks for the quick reply!
As discussed in the ubuntuusers.de forum, installing the packages "python-desktopcouch-application" caused the error-message: "ImportError: Could not find couchdb". Installing the package "couchdb" solved the problem.
