screenlets-daemon.py crashed with IndexError in __init__()

Thanks for your report. I've forwarded it to the developers of the software.

Confirmed.

hello,
        me too

hi, me too, the same problem, but on 32-bit interpid

same here.

Same thing here. Rightclicked screenlets icon in Intrepid 32bit

same here intrepid 32bit, right clicked screenlets icon

Same here, intrepid 32bit, right click then crash.

Confirmed.
Context menu for tray icon generate the crash.
Same package on Debian don't have the crash.

The problem seems to be in gtk.ImageMenuItem : the get_children should return a label and a image but it return only a label in Ubuntu.

In Ubuntu, I do this :
import gtk
Imenu = gtk.ImageMenuItem(gtk.STOCK_MISSING_IMAGE)
children = Imenu.get_children()
print children
[<gtk.AccelLabel object at 0xd9ea00 (GtkAccelLabel at 0xbf7010)>]

In Debian, I do this
import gtk
Imenu = gtk.ImageMenuItem(gtk.STOCK_MISSING_IMAGE)
children = Imenu.get_children()
print children
[<gtk.AccelLabel object at 0xb7d7f6e4 (GtkAccelLabel at 0x8673018)>, <gtk.Image object at 0xb7d7f874 (GtkImage at 0x8652570)>]

Ok already reported in #275188 for pygtk, I'll try to prepare a workaround for screenlets.

Uploaded, thank you.

Hi,

I'm closing the pygtk task as the bug is already open separately.

Thanks,

James

Julien, it sounds like this gtk change will affect more than Ubuntu users
later on, are you sure the Screenlets task should be Invalid?

Thanks,

James

Correct, I reopen it.

This bug was fixed in the package screenlets - 0.1.2-3ubuntu1

---------------
screenlets (0.1.2-3ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * debian/10-ImageMenuItem-update.patch
   - Replace get_children() by get_child() and get_image() following pygtk
     modifications (LP: #256329).

me too, the error message appeared but I don't has big problem just fail for a few seconds

The patch seems good, and it is currently working to fix screenlets in Ubuntu. Any reason why this has not been merged upstream yet?

Committed in revision 468 of screenlets trunk.
