Description Adam Dingle 2013-04-05 14:28:25 UTC 
Currently the Dashboard plugin is broken and won't load:

Traceback (most recent call last):

+ Trace 231739

  • File "/usr/local/lib/gedit/plugins/dashboard/__init__.py", line 23 in <module> 
    from .dashboard import Dashboard
  • File "/usr/local/lib/gedit/plugins/dashboard/dashboard.py", line 23 in <module> 
    from zeitgeist.client import ZeitgeistClient
ImportError: No module named 'zeitgeist' 

I suspect this plugin was written to access Zeitgeist via Python 2.  According to the Zeitgeist developers, the latest Zeitgeist should be accessible from Python 3 via gobject-introspection:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/zeitgeist/+bug/1165000

I have the latest Zeitgeist release (0.9.10) and have built it with gobject-introspection, but I'm still seeing the error above.
Comment 1 Ignacio Casal Quinteiro (nacho) 2013-04-05 14:42:25 UTC 
This plugin is waiting the developers from zeitgeist to port it to python 3. Same happens with synctex.

Port patch

This patch does the job but depends on the patch from bug #697487 do to mixing libzeitgeist and libzeitgeist2 leads to crashes

Put it in the same line as the others?

If I do that I would be over the 80 char limit as set by the pep8
Do you want it like that?
Comment 5 Ignacio Casal Quinteiro (nacho) 2013-04-07 14:03:00 UTC 
oh!, then no push it as it is.
