Bug 829696

It looks strange that the error comes from /bin/gnome-activity-journal since that file isn't installed by gnome-activity-journal.

It should be /usr/bin/gnome-activity-journal

How did you install this?

What is the output of

rpm -ql gnome-activity-journal

and 

rpm -V gnome-activity-journal

1. the archive is OK

    $ rpm -V gnome-activity-journal
    $ echo $?
    0

2. my PATH is defined as follows

    $ echo $PATH
    /usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin

it is /bin/gnome-activity-journal due to /bin -> /usr/bin link in FC17

    $ rpm -qf /bin/gnome-activity-journal  /usr/bin/gnome-activity-journal 
    gnome-activity-journal-0.8.0-2.fc17.noarch
    gnome-activity-journal-0.8.0-2.fc17.noarch


4. it is installed with yum (see rpm -qi output in my report).

5. running /usr/bin/gnome-activity-journal seems to work OK.

BTW (same configuration):

$ rpm -qf /bin/gnome-activity-journal /usr/bin/gnome-activity-journal 
gnome-activity-journal-0.8.0-2.fc17.noarch
gnome-activity-journal-0.8.0-2.fc17.noarch

$ /usr/bin/gnome-activity-journal

forgot to say I've installed it through yum so any deps should be installed too.

Ismael, please see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=821121 , your issue might be rather this one and another package already fix it.

Pierre: thanks for the link

Here is my update:


$ sudo rpm -e gnome-activity-journal
$ sudo rpm -Uvh http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/gnome-activity-journal/0.8.0/4.fc17/noarch/gnome-activity-journal-0.8.0-4.fc17.noarch.rpm

$ rpm -qf /bin/gnome-activity-journal /usr/bin/gnome-activity-journal 
gnome-activity-journal-0.8.0-4.fc17.noarch
gnome-activity-journal-0.8.0-4.fc17.noarch

$ which gnome-activity-journal 
/bin/gnome-activity-journal
$  gnome-activity-journal 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/bin/gnome-activity-journal", line 72, in <module>
    from src import config
ImportError: No module named src


but it starts with no apparent trouble when launched as

$ /usr/bin/gnome-activity-journal

Still happens in F18

This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.
