Public bug reported:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Run smartshine (preferably from a terminal)
2. Click the button to "add photos"
3. Select a random image
Expected behaviour:
The image is loaded and displayed in the application.
Actual behaviour:
The application seems to load, but never finishes. The following error message
is printed in the terminal:
Exception in thread Thread-1:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 801, in __bootstrap_inner
self.run()
File "/usr/share/smartshine/smartshine/smartshine.py", line 469, in run
Gui.put_files_to_the_list(self.fichiers)
File "/usr/share/smartshine/smartshine/smartshine.py", line 366, in
put_files_to_the_list
im = self.pixbuf2Image(pb)
File "/usr/share/smartshine/smartshine/smartshine.py", line 332, in
pixbuf2Image
return Image.fromstring("RGB",(width,height),pb.get_pixels() )
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 2063, in fromstring
"Please call frombytes() instead.")
Exception: fromstring() has been removed. Please call frombytes() instead.
I strongly suspect the API in PIL
(https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pillow) has changed, and
smartshine is trying to use the old one.
The image loads as expected in Ubuntu 14.04, while I get the error
message in 16.04. Note that 16.04 seems to be the first Ubuntu release
with version 3.x of the PIL library, 14.04 used 2.x.
I also get the same error message on 17.04 and presumably artful. I just
discovered this when clicking around in the application related to bug
1701648, though I have less of an idea how one might go about fixing
this.
