gwibber doesn't display messages

Do you find that the updates are detected and displayed on NotifyOSD but not in the gwibber client?

@Warren : yes updates are detected and are displayed on NotifyOSD

OK, same here. I have seen some earlier bugs of a similar nature.

My theory is that the backend to the web services is working fine (i.e. no problem with gwibber itself), but there is something wrong with the webkit frontend that displays the updates.

I was having the same issue, but I think I found the solution. The package python-webkit was installed at version 1.1.5-0~jjwkt1 by downgrading to 1.0.1-1ubuntu1 everything worked again.

It seems that there is no edit button and I just realized that I had the version slightly wrong. My previous comment should say that the version of python-webkit should be 1.0.2-1ubuntu1

I also encountered this bug after upgrading from Alpha 1 to Alpha 2. I'm running 32bit x86.

I have a clean install of Karmic alpha 2 and can confirm gwibber is not displaying messages for me either. As reported by others Notify OSD is showing updates, but they still do not appear in the gwibber panel.

Forgot to mention this is on an Ideapad s10e netbook, without compiz enabled.

Tentatively assigning to Ken; please reassign to canonical-desktop-team if you don't have time for this. Thanks!

assigning to Fabien, who said he would getting a new snapshot in.

Updated to the Daily PPA and with version: Gwibber 1.2.0 am now able to see messages without issue. Still on same ideapad as mentioned above.

So it seems this just needs uploading, right? Subscribing universe sponsors.

Martin, no need, I will upload myself asap.
Been busy and it slipped below my radar :P

Doesn't look like this is in need of sponsoring, unsubscribing u-u-s.

After updating to gwibber 1.2.0~bzr346 it's impossible to launch gwibber :
~$ gwibber
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gwibber", line 55, in <module>
    from gwibber.client import GwibberClient
ImportError: No module named gwibber.client

Alexander told me that this got fixed in the latest gwibber upload.
