You're not missing a dependency (or at least, there have been no new dependencies added recently). That suggests to me that some of our .py files aren't actually being installed (which they definitely are, according to the setup script). If you could check whether the contents of the '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/meld/' folder actually match the repo versions then that would be great. Also, I don't know what your setup is, but if you have another version of Meld installed from packages in /usr/lib/... or similar then that would explain this. If none of those show up a problem then I'm not sure what's going on. cheers, Kai
