This may be a duplicate of #1289875

It renders essential functionality of the package (or a dependent one) broken.

HI guys, anybody working on this ?

[Michael Hofmann (mh21)]

Could you try the version at ppa:indicator-multiload/daily?

[Philippe (raptor200357)]

Hey !

I'm sorry for the delay, I haven't had any notification saying that you replied.

So, good news, it seems to work fine using version 0.4-0~124~30~23~ubuntu14.04.1.

No error when launching in a terminal.

I happy to say that is looks like fixed for me.

Thank you :)

Any details on how this was fixed? The same error is coming out of Kerberos (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krb5-auth-dialog/+bug/1311487) and I'm wondering if the root cause is that same...

[Michael Hofmann (mh21)]

No idea :-( I think I fixed this a long time ago...

[Tom Dalton (tom-dalton)]

I've marked this as fix-released since you think you fixed it and theres a report from someone saying it was fixed for them! The Kerberos issue now has a patch too, so I'm happy :-)

[Philippe (raptor200357)]

Still OK for me, maybe it should be merged with the stable release.

[Sven Mueller (smu-u)]

Any chance we could get an SRU with the fix in?
As far as I can tell, this isn't really Fix Released, as the fix is not in the distribution the bug was targeted for (1404 LTS).
