You're right. It's a problem with couch, not lernid.
The error listed above is happening because /etc was in my path (probably a
holdover from some earlier system; I don't think there's any reason I still
need /etc in my path on modern Linux, but a lot of sysadmin programs used to
live there.) /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/desktopcouch/local_files.py line
43 does this:
for x in os.environ['PATH'].split(':'):
if os.path.exists(os.path.join(x, 'couchdb')):
COUCH_EXE = os.path.join(x, 'couchdb')
and since there's both /usr/bin/couchdb and /etc/couchdb, and there's no break
in the loop, couch matches the last match rather than the first one and ends up
trying to execute /etc/couchdb.
But if I remove /etc from my path, and try "import gwibber.lib" in python, I
just get an error a few lines farther in the same file:
>>> import gwibber.lib
>>> import gwibber.lib

gnomekeyring.IOError
That's inside a try clause, but the only exceptions handled are
gnomekeyring.NoMatchError and gnomekeyring.CancelledError:, not
gnomekeyring.IOError.
This is on a system that's not running a gnome desktop, so it may be
assuming some gnome keyring service that isn't running, and not checking
for the error in that case.
** Summary changed:
- lernid package has missing dependencies (couch)
+ import gwibber.lib gives couchdb errors
** Package changed: lernid (Ubuntu) => desktopcouch (Ubuntu)
