Upstream bug is WONTFIX... what are you expecting exactly? Thanks
Created attachment 178594 [details, diff] Add reaper object from Gnome bugzilla
In ontv, the XMLTVAssistant has problems with vte (here anyway). ========================================== [GConf get]: /apps/ontv/general/show_search_program_hotkey [GConf get]: /apps/ontv/general/configured_grabbers [GConf get]: /apps/ontv/general/show_window_hotkey [GConf get]: /apps/ontv/general/display_upcoming_programs [GConf get]: /apps/ontv/general/display_current_programs [GConf get]: /apps/ontv/general/enable_hotkeys [GConf get]: /apps/ontv/general/grabber_command Loaded reminders from file: /home/willie/.gnome2/ontv/reminders.p [GConf set]: /apps/ontv/general/display_current_programs=True [GConf set]: /apps/ontv/general/display_upcoming_programs=True Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/gnome/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ontv/XMLTVAssistant.py", line 259, in do_prepare reaper = vte.reaper_get() AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'reaper_get' The patch solve the problem, upstream bug is WONTFIX but many distro use this. Thx
(In reply to comment #3) > The patch solve the problem, upstream bug is WONTFIX but many distro use this. What about fixing ontv instead? Upstream says it can use other APIs to do the same.
After discussing this with Jeremy on irc, we came to the conclusion that it was best not to mess around with vte's API, especially one that has already been dropped from the current trunk. ontv should probably prepare for vte's next release which should properly provide the needed feature. Cheers
