Sorry it took me so long to respond, this report has somehow slipped under the radar. Anyhow, it works fine for me on an up-to-date F-17 install, could you re-test please?
Hello, No, gnome-subtitles starts normally if invoked as root, but I get the above error if I invoke it as a regular user. Răzvan
Hmm, seems like your config might have become corrupted. Would you mind trying creating a fresh user account and trying from there?
I just pushed 1.3 to updates-testing on f-18 and later, would you mind re-testing?
Hello, I may confirm that the program (version 1.2) launches in Fedora 18 (with all updates applied, as of April 2nd, 2013). Many thanks, Răzvan
