syncthing-gtk cannot start: "ImportError: cannot import name Gtk"

jpdoyle commented 7 years ago

Issue description

After successfully setting up syncthing, I installed syncthing-gtk (python27Packages.syncthing-gtk). It installed without errors, but it won't start when I try to run it.

Steps to reproduce

Install python27Packages.syncthing-gtk
Run syncthing-gtk

The full traceback I saw was:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/nix/store/gx1g39b3ifp5v2cjxs812klx37n04six-python2.7-syncthing-gtk-0.6.3/bin/.syncthing-gtk-wrapped", line 15, in <module>

@jpdoyle Could you report back the syncthing and syncthing-gtk versions you are using?

Edit: Never mind, I have just seen the traceback and can tell version 0.6.3 of syncthing-gtk is quite old. Let me try to backport a newer one for 16.09.

syncthing-gtk is now working like a charm. Thanks!
