1 year ago Hallo,
at least in Debian 10 (buster) and Ubuntu 22.04 it is included:
https://packages.debian.org/buster/python3-xdg https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/python3-xdg
Maybe a dependency check would be the place but I just dont know where it is :D

1 year ago The python3-xdg dep was in the debian/control (deps spec for the Debian package), but the README only mentioned python-xdg in the old Python 2 deps. I just updated the README in 91ef659.
The import failure message in
$ sudo fluxgui
Failed to import plain appindicator ...was a buggy diagnostic; the failure didn't matter. I just fixed that in a21f55f.
Thanks!
Hi im using MX Linux version 21.3 AHS. following the instructions in the wiki for the manual install after installing the partial Ubuntu/Debian dependencies it hit an error upon launching fluxgui
$ sudo fluxgui Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/fluxgui", line 17, in
from fluxgui.fluxapp import main
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/fluxgui/fluxapp.py", line 6, in
import fluxgui.settings as settings
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/dist-packages/fluxgui/settings/init.py", line 3, in
from xdg.DesktopEntry import DesktopEntry
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'xdg'
after a short google i was able to find a solution https://askubuntu.com/questions/701045/redshift-gtk-crashes-on-start-importerror-no-module-named-xdg Whilst not exactly the same error the following solution provided a partial fix enough to launch and use the app

If it is not included in your version of Linux Mint, you can install it by downloading it from the mentioned site and installing it with sudo dpkg -i … manually.'
After launching in terminal with the installed missing dependency it displays $ sudo fluxgui Failed to import plain appindicator ... Starting backend app: ['xflux', '-l', '-41.254990', '-g', '174.935690', '-k', '3400', '-nofork']

Maybe another dependency is missing? not sure but the app is working well enough. I thought i'd share this with anyone that was having trouble getting it to work in Debian based distro's.
