I confirm the bug with feisty amd64 and freeguide 0.10.4-2. And there is no bug with feisty i386.

I can confirm that this problem still exists in Gutsy / Kubuntu on AMD 64.

I don't think this is anything to do with AMD64-ness. I've a plain 8.04 and have just installed freeguide 0.10.6-1ubuntu1. Selecting Applications -> Sound & Video -> Freeguide gives similar output to the above in ~/.xsession-errors. Running `freeguide' at the command line does the same, see attachment. I assume it's a packaging error; there's a missing dependency.

I meant to say, 32-bit x86.

The package depends on "java" but actually, FreeGuide doesn't work with the gcj version of java - it requires openjdk-6-jre or sun-java6-jre.

I don't know whether there's a good way to specify something like that in the package.

Please could you try installing openjdk and seeing whether that fixes the problem?

installed default-jre wich points to openjdk-6-jre and now it works fine for me.

On a fresh 9.10 install, freeguide installs and runs. It has the odd
quirk, but they may be different bugs, or problems caused by the Java
runtime it's using. The interesting thing is, none of the Java packages
it claims to need are installed AFAICS.

    $ apt-cache show freeguide
    ...
    Version: 0.10.9-1
    Depends: xmltv-gui, openjdk-6-jre | java2-runtime, openjdk-6-jre-headless | java-virtual-machine

    $ apt-rdepends --state-follow=Installed -p freeguide
    freeguide
      Depends: java-virtual-machine [NotInstalled]
      Depends: java2-runtime [NotInstalled]
      Depends: openjdk-6-jre [NotInstalled]
      Depends: openjdk-6-jre-headless [NotInstalled]
      Depends: xmltv-gui [Installed]
    xmltv-gui
    ...

So why `apt-get install' thought it was OK to proceed, I don't know.
