*ping* Anybody out there to fix this issue??
Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2015-01-11 04:03:31 UTC 
Looks like a missing dependency, try:

yum install python-zeitgeist

Does that help?
Comment 3 Heiko Adams 2015-01-11 10:32:51 UTC 
python-zeitgeist is installed but that doesn't solve the problem

$ rpm -qa python-zeitgeist
python-zeitgeist-0.9.16-0.3.20140808.git.ce9affa.fc21.noarch
Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2015-01-11 13:13:28 UTC 
OK, something wrong there then if it's installed and not loading properly per error message in initial comment:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib64/rhythmbox/plugins/rbzeitgeist/rbzeitgeist.py", line 35, in <module>
    from zeitgeist.client import ZeitgeistClient
ImportError: No module named 'zeitgeist'
Comment 5 Eric Work 2015-01-20 20:35:33 UTC 
I get the same error.  I think it's because rhythmbox is using python3 and python-zeitgeist only installs the library for python2?
Comment 6 Rex Dieter 2015-01-20 20:39:27 UTC 
I would guess yes, all the other rhythmbox deps are python3 based

let's bounce this back to rhythmbox, I'd suggest the packaging omit the zeitgeist plugin at least until it's requirements can be satisfied.
Comment 7 Fedora End Of Life 2015-11-04 14:03:29 UTC 
This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '21'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.
