Public bug reported:

Emesene 2.11.9 uses the LauncherAPI for connection to the Unity Laucher,
but in Oneiric, this doesn't work any more. This is because one can not
use pygtk and pygi in the same application. Because we also want to
support other distros that don't have gtk3, we can't upgrade to pygi
yet. This is why we need to communicate with the Unity Launcher through
DBus.

Expected behaviour:

The Unity Launcher Entry shows the unread message count (messages that
were received while the focus  was not on the conversation window).

Current behaviour:

It doesn't.

I made a branch that is two commits ahead of 2.11.9 containing a fix for
this problem:
