[SOLVED] rhythmbox problems (0.13.2-1)

xdemo · 2010-11-01 00:13:06

I just did an -Syu and rhythmbox updated fine, so i go to restart it... now there is nothing related to last.fm anymore?

I choose rhythmbox because it had a built in last.fm scrobbler and the ability to stream tracks from your personal radio (same as lastfm-client package, just without qt libs).

Now, whether thats an upstream thing going on and they decided to remove it (???) i can't see why. But alot of other plugins like cover art, fm radio, and etc.. don't want to work.

Message box with:

Plugin Error
Unable to activate plugin Cover art

And terminal output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/rhythmbox/plugins/artdisplay/__init__.py", line 32, in <module>
    from CoverArtDatabase import CoverArtDatabase
  File "/usr/lib/rhythmbox/plugins/artdisplay/CoverArtDatabase.py", line 37, in <module>
    from LastFMCoverArtSearch import LastFMCoverArtSearch
  File "/usr/lib/rhythmbox/plugins/artdisplay/LastFMCoverArtSearch.py", line 30, in <module>
    import gconf
ImportError: No module named gconf

(rhythmbox:4426): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: Could not load plugin artdisplay


(rhythmbox:4426): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: Error, impossible to activate plugin 'Cover art'

$ pacman -Q gconf
gconf 2.32.0-1

How to fix, and how can i enable last.fm player/scrobbling support again?

(I would just switch to banshee, but for some odd reason it complains about needing to be a last.fm subscriber to stream your own radio... when you clearly do not. )

Ah thanks for the fast reply, gnome-python solved it.
How long does it generally take (if accepted) for a feature request to happen?
