error when enabling plugins
Last modified: 2010-01-26 16:53:17 UTC
I get an error when loading plugins "There was an error loading the Copy link to Web Plugin", "The plugin loader "(null)" could not be found". The occurs for all 3 plugins. This is on Fedora 12 x86_64. The plugins are located in the /usr/lib64/emerillon/plugins directory: /usr/lib64/emerillon/plugins/copy-link.emerillon-plugin /usr/lib64/emerillon/plugins/libcopy-link.so /usr/lib64/emerillon/plugins/libmap-position.so /usr/lib64/emerillon/plugins/libplacemarks.so /usr/lib64/emerillon/plugins/map-position.emerillon-plugin /usr/lib64/emerillon/plugins/placemarks.emerillon-plugin
Your Ethos installation is broken. It has been built without a C plugin loader (or any other). This is not Emerillon's fault :)
I have the C, JS and Python loaders installed: [perobinson@neo ~]$ rpm -ql ethos /usr/lib64/ethos /usr/lib64/ethos/plugin-loaders /usr/lib64/ethos/plugin-loaders/libcloader.so.0 /usr/lib64/ethos/plugin-loaders/libcloader.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib64/ethos/plugin-loaders/libjsloader.so.0 /usr/lib64/ethos/plugin-loaders/libjsloader.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib64/girepository-1.0/Ethos-1.0.typelib /usr/lib64/libethos-1.0.so.0 /usr/lib64/libethos-1.0.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib64/libethos-ui-1.0.so.0 /usr/lib64/libethos-ui-1.0.so.0.0.0 /usr/share/doc/ethos-0.2.2 /usr/share/doc/ethos-0.2.2/AUTHORS /usr/share/doc/ethos-0.2.2/COPYING /usr/share/doc/ethos-0.2.2/NEWS /usr/share/doc/ethos-0.2.2/README /usr/share/ethos /usr/share/ethos/icons /usr/share/ethos/icons/ethos-plugin.png /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/ethos.mo /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/ethos.mo [perobinson@neo ~]$ rpm -ql ethos-python /usr/lib64/ethos/plugin-loaders/libpythonloader.so.0 /usr/lib64/ethos/plugin-loaders/libpythonloader.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/_ethos.so /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/_ethosui.so /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/ethos /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/ethos/__init__.py /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/ethos/__init__.pyc /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/ethos/__init__.pyo /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/ethos/ui.py /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/ethos/ui.pyc /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/ethos/ui.pyo /usr/share/pygtk/2.0/defs/ethos.defs /usr/share/pygtk/2.0/defs/ethosui.defs [perobinson@neo ~]$
Forwarding this to the Ethos author.
It does detect the plugin descriptions but just can't enable them.
(In reply to comment #3) > Forwarding this to the Ethos author. Pierre, did you get a response from the ethos author?
Yes, he said he'd look into it... Anyway, there's now libpeas on the horizon, we might consider switch to it!
