Bug 688978 - im-status plugin fails to load


Summary:	im-status plugin fails to load

Hi,
I think this started happening after I've updated gtk+.
The error on activation is:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/lib64/rhythmbox/plugins/im-status/im-status.py", line 54 in <module>
```
class IMStatusPlugin (GObject.Object, Peas.Activatable):
```
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gi/types.py", line 222 in __init__
```
cls._setup_vfuncs()
```
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gi/types.py", line 114 in _setup_vfuncs
```
for vfunc_name, py_vfunc in cls.__dict__.items():
```

RuntimeError: Couldn't find GType of implementor of interface PeasActivatable. Forgot to set __gtype_name__?

I have fixed this by updating pygobject, after reading this:
