Package: gpxviewer
Version: 0.5.2-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
It looks like gpxviewer uses a couple of libraries which the package
doesn't declare a dependency upon. This can lead to crashes when the
libraries aren't installed. For instance:
$ gpxviewer
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/gpxviewer", line 28, in <module>
from gi.repository import Gdk
ImportError: No module named gi.repository
I found that gpxviewer crashes or has other issues if any of the
following packages are missing:
python-cairo, python-gi, python-gtk2
With these three installed, it seems to work as expected.
Please see the attached patch which adds these as dependencies.
