Stewart Adam (s.adam) answered me this: "You've set up everything perfectly but I think the problem is that gtk.StatusIcon, which fwbackups uses to create the tray icon, is only available in PyGTK 2.10 and newer. I'm try to change the code to simply disable the tray icon features when gtk.StatusIcon isn't available." And the (very fast) solution was: "If you clone the fwbackups git repository (git://github.com/firewing1/fwbackups.git) and then run: $ ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr You should be able to run "fwbackups-runappy.pyw" from within the "src" folder directly to see if the change works. If so, the usual "make install" will install it onto your system." There is an error when run ./autogen.sh, so you cannot install at all, but if you just copy or make a softlink of fwbackups-runappy.pyw to /usr/share/fwbackups, it works like a charm! There is a step I forgot to mention above.. regarding dependency list. [1.1] Didn't find rpm for intltool, but I was able to built it without any problem: Download intltool-0.35.5.tar.bz2 from http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/6.3/general/intltool.html Untar it, ./configure; make; make install This is just for anyone who needs to install fwbackups on SLES 10 (tested on SP1/SP2). Thanks for the report. Since the problem is in fwbackups's packaging and not the code, it doesn't affect Fedora so I'm going to close this as UPSTREAM. |
