Errors when running tvnamer after apt-get install

[dinki]

Hey guys. Installed tvnamer using apt-get install tvnamer on my Open Media Vault Debian server. I'm not sure where the problem lies as I'm not super technical. Can someone look at my copy/paste and tell me where things are going wrong and wat I might do to correct it?

Thanks and all the best to you!

From that error I suspect the version of the tvdb_api library installed is outdated, as that line of code is no longer present in the last few releases.

Possibly either:

1. The version of tvnamer in Debian packaged includes an overly old version of the tvdb_api dependency (which seems odd, as the tvnamer version is reasonably up-to-date)
2. You have an old version of tvdb_api.py installed somehow, and that is overriding the packaged version?

Thanks for the tips. I stop using this last year so I'll just close this ticket.
