[Slackbuilds-users] Catfish not working

[Niki Kovacs]

Hi,

I just built Catfish from SBo, along with the handful of dependencies 
(pexpect, pyxdg, pygobject3). I'm running it in the Xfce desktop 
environment.

The application doesn't start. When I invoke 'catfish' in a graphical 
terminal, I get a bunch of error messages. Here's the beginning:

(catfish.py:10978): Gtk-WARNING **: Unknown property: 
GtkInfoBar.show-close-button
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/share/catfish/bin/catfish.py", line 44, in <module>
     catfish.main()
   File "/usr/share/catfish/catfish/__init__.py", line 73, in main
     window = CatfishWindow.CatfishWindow()
   File "/usr/share/catfish/catfish_lib/Window.py", line 49, in __new__
     new_object.finish_initializing(builder)
   File "/usr/share/catfish/catfish/CatfishWindow.py", line 210, in 
finish_initializing
     if SudoDialog.check_dependencies(['locate', 'updatedb']):
   File "/usr/share/catfish/catfish_lib/SudoDialog.py", line 54, in 
check_dependencies
     pexpect.TIMEOUT]) == 3:
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pexpect/__init__.py", line 
1418, in expect
     timeout, searchwindowsize)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pexpect/__init__.py", line 
1433, in expect_list
     timeout, searchwindowsize)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pexpect/__init__.py", line 
1490, in expect_loop
     index = searcher.search(incoming, freshlen, searchwindowsize)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pexpect/__init__.py", line 
1946, in search
     match = s.search(buffer, searchstart)
RuntimeError: internal error in regular expression engine

Any idea what's wrong here?

Cheers,

Niki
