I've been experiencing a problem with Glipper for a month or so now. It stopped working after an emerge -uD world. Usually a nice revdep-rebuild corrects these things, but not this time. Various web and forum searches haven't turned up anything useful. Oddly enough I have two other machines with similar configurations (x86) and they run Glipper just fine. When I try to start it via the command prompt I get this:

Code:

SHARED_DATA_DIR: glipper
Binding shortcut <Ctrl><Alt>c to popup glipper
Changed process name to: glipper-2.7
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/glipper/AppIndicator.py:43: Warning: gsignal.c:2295: signal `child-added' is invalid for instance `0x8399008'
  self._app_indicator.set_menu(self.menu)
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/glipper/AppIndicator.py:43: Warning: gsignal.c:2295: signal `child-removed' is invalid for instance `0x8399008'
  self._app_indicator.set_menu(self.menu)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/glipper-2.7", line 43, in <module>
    glipper.AppIndicator.AppIndicator()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/glipper/AppIndicator.py", line 53, in __init__
    get_glipper_plugins_manager().load()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/glipper/PluginsManager.py", line 45, in load
    self.load_cache()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/glipper/PluginsManager.py", line 35, in load_cache
    for file_info in directory.enumerate_children(gio.FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_NAME):
gio.Error: No such file or directory


I'm pretty handy with computers but this is beyond me. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Okay, so I compared the other two machines to the goofy one. The goofy one has glipper-2.3 installed. The other two are still running glipper-1.0-r3. glipper-1.0-r3 is no longer available so it doesn't look like I can revert back to the old version. I did verify that the following packages were pulled in with glipper-2.3:

Code:
dev-libs/keybinder-0.2.2
dev-python/python-distutils-extra-2.23
dev-python/pycrypto-2.4.1
dev-python/python-prctl-1.3.1
dev-libs/libindicator-0.4.1-r300
dev-libs/libindicator-0.4.1-r201
dev-libs/libdbusmenu-0.5.1-r300
dev-libs/libdbusmenu-0.5.1-r200
dev-libs/libappindicator-0.4.1-r201


Hmm, it pulled in two versions of dev-libs/libindicator and dev-libs/libdbusmenu. I wonder if that has something to do with the problem.
