Bug Description
Binary package hint: moovida
Running Karmic (up to date) on a VMWare.
I installed moovida using the ubuntu software center, when starting it, it immediately crashes after the splash screen with the message of a missing dependency 'coherence'.
Installing python-coherence (synaptic) and running moovida again reveals the next message, another dependency:
Twisted, installing 'python-twisted' as well (again using synaptic),
These are required by the coherence plugin for moovida, which gets installed alongside the main program.
Of course it still doesn't run because of an other error: "ERROR: couldn't create the window, exiting..."
But I'm guessing this is due to the fact that this is a vmware and not a native installation. If I'm mistaken about that last statement, please correct me.
console output:

Update:
Moovida starts fine on my native 9.10 installation without the dependencies, however some things don't work, and there's no error, apart from the console.
For example: youtube video won't work, it will just hang in the menu.
It's my opinion that this plugin should not be installed without the needed dependencies.
After installing the above python packages solves the problem.
python-coherence and python-twisted should therefore be added as dependencies.
