Description Franco Bugnano 2018-10-30 18:18:39 UTC
Description of problem:
I use the tortoisehg-nautilus and nextcloud-client-nautilus, which both use Python 2

After a clean install of Fedora 29, none of these Nautilus extensions work (In Fedora 28 they both worked fine).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
python2-nautilus-1.2.1-3.fc29.x86_64
tortoisehg-nautilus-4.6.1-1.fc29.noarch
nextcloud-client-nautilus-2.3.3-2.fc28.x86_64
nautilus-3.30.2-1.fc29.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. sudo dnf install tortoisehg-nautilus nextcloud-client-nautilus
2. Open Nautilus
3. Go to a folder that contains a Mercurial repository or a Nextcloud sync directory

Actual results:
The directory is shown as a normal directory, instead of having the overlays on the files and the additional context menu entries


Expected results:
The files show an overlay icon that indicate their up-to-date status in case of Mercurial, and their sync status in case of Nextcloud. Additionally, the right click on a file shows tortoisehg specific menu entries.

Additional info:
When running nautilus from the command line, there is this error message:
(nautilus:14412): Nautilus-Python-WARNING **: 19:13:53.377: g_module_open libpython failed: /usr/lib64/libpython3.7.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    except StandardError, e:
                        ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax





The fact that it is searching /usr/lib64/python3.7 seems like it is looking for Python 3.7 instead of Python 2.7.
I have also tried to run Nautilus with the command:
env PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 nautilus

but the result is the same.

As an additional info that can help, I have installed both python2-gobject and python3-gobject, and I have only installed python2-nautilus, and not python3-nautilus (to make sure that the Python extensions run in Python 2 instead of Python 3).

Comment 1 Raphael Groner 2018-10-30 19:50:52 UTC
Thanks for the report. This bug introduced with a first try to port to python3.
