And I don't know if it is really necessary, but worked for me, I also had to erase ~/.local/share/desktop-couch/ the first time, because I had some wrong configuration from earlier tries. cheers, -- Dionisio -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

So I installed gwibber, gwibber-service and gwibber-themes from lucid and changed permissions in /etc/couchdb/ as # chmod -R o+rX /etc/couchdb/ And then I could launch gwibber 2.30.0.1 regards, -- Dionisio -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I am really interested in the package, even I've been hoping that would be possible to package the Ubuntu version, but theirs, strongly depends on Python2.6. I have no idea in packaging except for some other Debian packages I rebuilt my self just for adding compilation options to the package. But I never made a package from scratch. Since I do really want the package to be built, I could learn how. The question is where to? regards, -- Dionisio. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
