Bibus fails to start and there is a Python traceback that refers to a GnomePrint symbol. It appears that Bibus depends on GNOME print libraries, because after I installed gnome-base/libgnomeprint it magically worked again. I guess it should be a simple matter of adding a dependency to the bibus ebuild to fix this. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Remove libgnomeprint from system. 2. Run bibus.

Actually, with some further testing, the problem and solution are a little more straightforward: bibus depends on x11-libs/wxGTK[+gnome].
Created attachment 229175 [details] Proposed new ebuild to fix Gnome dependency.
Hi Jeremy, If you re-emerge wxGTK without gnome dep and wxpython, do you still get the error? Thanks
(In reply to comment #3) > > If you re-emerge wxGTK without gnome dep and wxpython, do you still get the > error? Sorry, I'm not quite sure what you mean... bibus depends on wxpython and I have just said that it depends on the wxGTK[gnome] dependency... how/why would I contradict that? I'm not saying it's impossible, I just need you to give me some more details.

I am thinking your wxpython was built on top of a wxGTK[gnome]. But you might have disabled the gnome use flag afterward, rebuild your wxGTK[-gnome] and wxpython actually still refered to the older wxGTK. If this is the case, re-installing wxpython should fix it, but then it would be an wxpython automagic bug. I might be wrong, so please test.
You're right!! After I remerged wxGTK[-gnome] and then rebuilt wxpython bibus worked fine. A perspicacious observation, Sébastien. I'll close this bug as invalid -- should a bug for wxpython be opened now?
