Screenshot of issue.

Currently the missing codec/plugins installation window says that "Python" needs plugins x,y,z to continue. It should be allowed to say "My Music Player" needs plugins x,y,z to continue, instead.

Does glib.set_prgname('foo') help? (Where 'foo' is the saame name used for the foo.desktop file)
Comment 2 sgringwe 2012-05-28 22:51:05 UTC 
No, that did not help.

When/where are you doing this? Before/after gtk init() ?

I think this is a problem to sort out between the python glib/gtk bindings and glib/gtk.

The code that calls the install helper does g_get_prgname(), you need to figure out how to set the program name properly IMHO.
Comment 4 sgringwe 2012-09-30 14:38:34 UTC 
I call set_prgname after gtk.init().
