Description of problem: In Fedora 9, the deskbar applet queried the tracker search tool database as part of presenting its results. In Fedora 10, under 'Deskbar Preferences', Tracker is not available to tick as a wanted loaded extension. The ability is access Tracker from deskbar applet is very useful. The following files are installed on this Fedora 10 computer as part of normal package installation: /usr/lib/deskbar-applet/modules-2.20-compatible/tracker-module.py /usr/lib/deskbar-applet/modules-2.20-compatible/tracker-module.pyc /usr/lib/deskbar-applet/modules-2.20-compatible/tracker-module.pyo Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Name : deskbar-applet Arch : i386 Version : 2.24.1 Release : 2.fc10 Name : tracker Arch : i386 Version : 0.6.6 Release : 3.fc10 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install tracker and deskbar-applet 2.Look for tracker extension under 'Deskbar preferences' 3.No can find. Expected results: Use Tracker results within deskbar-applet. More info: This is a duplicate bug report of Fedora bugzilla bug 476608, as I'm not sure which package (deskbar-applet or tracker) is bug belongs too and I haven't had a reply to the other bug report yet. Feel free to mark the appropriate bug report redundant, whichever package this bug doesn't apply to. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476608 Also info about this bug at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deskbar-applet/+bug/271925 Running deskbar-applet at command line: [stewart@sefton ~]$ /usr/lib/deskbar-applet/deskbar-applet -d -w 01-04 21:20:02 deskbar.core.ModuleLoader ERROR Error loading the file: /usr/lib/deskbar-applet/modules-2.20-compatible/tracker-module.py. 01-04 21:20:02 deskbar.core.ModuleLoader ERROR problem in /usr/lib/deskbar-applet/modules-2.20-compatible/tracker-module.py - <type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: No module named gnomedesktop Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/deskbar/core/ModuleLoader.py", line 98, in import_module mod = pydoc.importfile (filename) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 256, in importfile raise ErrorDuringImport(path, sys.exc_info()) ErrorDuringImport: problem in /usr/lib/deskbar-applet/modules-2.20-compatible/tracker-module.py - <type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: No module named gnomedesktop
Confirmed; a fix is simply to replace one line in tracker-module.py to import gnomedesktop instead of deskbar.core.gnomedesktop. Reported upstream, and a patched build will be available soon.
