gnome-subtitles refuses to open files (.srt .sub .txt)

[Florian Dorn]

Binary package hint: gnome-subtitles

Description: Ubuntu hardy (development branch)
Release: 8.04

Opening a subtitle produces "The specified file is invalid."

I have experimented with various Files (.srt, .sub, .txt) with the same result.

For me, installing the following package resolve the issue:
libmono-i18n2.0-cil

06011988, it worked for me too. Thanks!

[Jef Damen (jef-damen)]

I also solved the problem with installing libmono-i18n2.0-cil.
Thanks

[Paretje (paretje)]

I solved the problem by installing that package, too. Seems to be a dependences problem of the package

libmono-i18n2.0-cil Yes!
