[Slackbuilds-users] meld and supervisor

[Miguel De Anda]

hi all, i was trying to setup supervisor last night and it seems to
have an unlisted dependency on meld -- i assume meld3 but i've tried
both. unfortunately i get the following error:

# /etc/rc.d/rc.supervisord start
Starting...Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/supervisord", line 5, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point

line 829, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'meld3>=0.6.5' distribution
was not found and is required by supervisor
ERROR

if i try to run meld directly i get:

# meld
2017-08-23 09:02:54,020 CRITICAL Gtk: gtk_icon_theme_get_for_screen:
assertion 'GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/bin/meld", line 193, in setup_resources
    Gtk.IconTheme.get_default().append_search_path(icon_dir)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'append_search_path'

i haven't tried on a "clean" system yet but i plan on doing so today
so it may be a local issue. just wanted to throw it out there in case
anybody was listening. :P

thanks,
miguel
