Something about your desktop has python-xlib
broken for every application that uses it (not just QuickTile). See #58 for a solution that worked for someone else.
I really need to add this to the FAQ.
On second thought, the FAQ is really only an appropriate place for things where QuickTile itself can't display a helpful message (eg. no reaction when there should be one), so I instead updated QuickTile to display a helpful error message.
Ubuntu 14.04 recently upgraded the python-xlib package. This caused quicktile to stop working, with the following traceback:
The changelog from the ubuntu package manager reads:
Seems to have to do with the parsing of the .Xauthority file. My knowledge of this is insufficient to debug this. Downgrading python-xlib "solves" the problem, but is not desirable for obvious reasons. Is this a known issue?
