report

---

To reproduce:

Install maya via iso; enable backports and install level 1/2/3 upgrades; reboot.

$ cinnamon --version
Cinnamon 2.0.14

Note installing the weather applet via cinnamon-settings fails as above.

Other applets install OK.

Cannot reproduce in petra.

@mtwebster Any guess where/why Spices could be throwing?

Hmm check permissions of that applet folder? I have a vm of maya, on another machine. i'll try in the morning

I tried in Mint 13 and could not reproduce - the applet installs fine.

Could the user try this while running cinnamon-settings from the command line?

Could not find bluetooth module; is the cinnamon-control-center package installed?
