On line 186 of /usr/share/impressive/impressive.py it is being asked to import TiffImagePlugin from PIL python-imaging.
impressive.py is not importing from python-imaging *any* the plugins listed on the line (TiffImagePlugin, BmpImagePlugin, JpegImagePlugin, PngImagePlugin, PpmImagePlugin). I removed them one by one and the same error ocurrs with each plugin, "Oops! Cannot load necessary modules: No module named ***ImagePlugin". >From just quickly scanning through the code of /usr/share/pyshared/PIL/TiffImagePlugin.py between the version in quantal (1.1.7-4build1) and the version in raring (1.1.7+2.0.0-1) there are substantial differences, 1034 and 860 lines of code, respectively. If you only use PDF files with Impressive, an immediate workaround which I've verfied works is to simply comment out line 186 from /usr/share/impressive/impressive.py. But if anyone can come up with a real fix, it'd be very appreciated. :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1166680 Title: Impressive does not start: Cannot load necessary modules: No module named TiffImagePlugin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/impressive/+bug/1166680/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
