deluge @1.3.6 +python27: deluge-gtk-2.7 fails to start with "import error"

[bitmail@…]

System: OSX 10.5.8, PPC, Macports 2.1.3 fully updated.

Installation of Deluge @1.3.6 +python2.7 works fine.

However starting the GTK interface fails:

deluge-gtk-2.7 Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/local/bin/deluge-gtk-2.7", line 9, in <module>
    load_entry_point('deluge==1.3.6', 'gui_scripts', 'deluge-gtk')()

    import gtk_osxapplication
ImportError: No module named gtk_osxapplication

Previous versions (f.e. 1.3.5) worked fine. I didn't use it in a while, so I don't know exactly when it broke and if it's due to the update to 1.3.6 or some dependency. I did uninstall deluge and reinstall it, to no avail.

Code at the point of failure is this:

        if deluge.common.osx_check() and gtk.gdk.WINDOWING == "quartz":
            import gtk_osxapplication

so I assume that you have gtk2 +quartz installed (please confirm). Looks like a missing dependency in this case. Works well for me with gtk2 +x11 installed.

Yes, I use gtk2 +quartz. It did work well since 1.3.3 (or 1.3.2, I'm not sure), but some recent upgrade broke it.

In fact, it appears that the problem is with deluge 1.3.6 itself.

In this version, code was added to attempt to add OS X Native style menus (in the OS X menu bar) as opposed to GTK+ style menus (in the app window) when it detects that GTK+ is installed with the quartz backend.

This normally would require an additional dependency on the current OS X integration library (port gtk-osx-application) but it appears that they used an older deprecated API (port ige-mac-integration) which currently does not build properly on MacPorts and is not API compatible with the more current library.

This only has impact for +quartz users such as yourself.

So rather than hold things up any further, I am disabling this code for now, while I coordinate with the upstream folks about this.

Fix committed in r107048. Let me know if this works as you expect.

Thanks for your report.

Hello,

just tested your patch (selfupdate & upgrade outdated) and 1.3.6_1 seems to work fine. Thanks for fixing it that quickly! Do you think upstream will resolve the issue in a timely fashion as well?
