There are problems again with gwibber and facebook. The facebook feed does not refresh.
The error this time is that there is no "count" key when receiving the facebook feed:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gwibber/microblog/dispatcher.py", line 81, in run
message_data = PROTOCOLS[account["service"]].Client(account)(opname, **args)
File "/usr/share/gwibber/plugins/facebook/__init__.py", line 253, in __call__
return getattr(self, opname)(**args)
File "/usr/share/gwibber/plugins/facebook/__init__.py", line 268, in receive
return [self._message(post) for post in data["data"]]
File "/usr/share/gwibber/plugins/facebook/__init__.py", line 224, in _message
m["likes"]["count"] = data["likes"]["count"]
KeyError: 'count'
My solution was to edit the file /usr/share/gwibber/plugins/facebook/__init__.py and from line 224 to 231 delete any instance of ["count"]. Save file and reboot. The facebook feed now refreshes and appears in gwibber.

[Impact]
Facebook's API has changed the data structure returned. There is no longer a count of total number of likes provided. This causes a parse error in the gwibber.
[Test case]
To reproduce this bug, ensure you have a facebook account configured and attempt a refresh. The parse failure prevents any new feed data from being stored in gwibber.
To verify the fix, ensure there is a facebook account configured and refresh the feed. You should see recent content in your feed.
[Regression potential]
Very low, right now all refresh attempts will fail to parse the result meaning nothing
gets stored. Any problems with the included fix would result in the same failure.
