Fixed the defaults_en_GB.py file -- somehow that one escaped getting the encoding declared when I fixed all the other ones earlier.

I also have the same error on Ubuntu Feisty 7.04 as reported above. I installed the gourmet_0.13.4-1_all.deb

The metakit module is only needed if you are upgrading from a legacy database. If you have a recipes.mk file sitting around, Gourmet would like to have metakit around so it can automatically upgrade for you. After that, though, metakit isn't necessary at all and you can safely ignore the warning.

Adding the line: # -- coding: utf-8 -- to the second line of the file mentioned above (/usr/share/gourmet/defaults_en_GB.py) as mentioned in the link resolves this issue such that the application can start. However, a warning is shown:

We had an import error.
