Cannot load the plugin from the master branch on Ubuntu 12.04 #273

Curiously, I can no longer load the plugin from the master branch on Ubuntu 12.04. I get:

(rhythmbox:17520): libpeas-WARNING **: Could not find loader 'python3' for plugin 'coverart_browser'

If I install the release-1.0 branch, it runs fine.

yep - as we briefly talked about previously - trying to manage the project across 4-5 versions of rhythmbox, 5 versions of GTK changes, 2 lots of python versions was more than a nightmare :/

In the README file I've highlighted that version 2.0 will now target Rhythmbox 3.0 and later - thus ubuntu 13.10 and more importantly the next LTS ubuntu 14.04 and later. This will obviously simplify development effort and equally importantly reduce testing effort.

Version 1.0 will be kept in a stable condition - bug fixes and if possible, backport compatible stuff from the master branch. I'm currently considering backporting the new darker theme to v1.1.

I'm currently targeting v2.0 for a July/August release date which by then most users will have jumped from both ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04 and those users who were on 12.04 will have equally migrated to 14.04.

Well, I intend to stay on 12.04 until 14.04 is released. I will check on this project from my other systems which are newer from time to time. Thanks for the clarification.
