Revelation and OpenSuse 15.2

[Giovanni Besio]

Dear all,

I just installed OpenSuse 15.2 on my new desktop and I noticed that Revelation is not working.

Actually if I try to launch it by GUI it does do nothing, if I launch through command line I obtain the following message:

/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:57: GtkWarning: could not open display
  warnings.warn(str(e), _gtk.Warning)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/revelation", line 25, in <module>
    import gettext, gobject, gtk, gtk.gdk, os, pwd, sys, dbus
ImportError: No module named dbus

Any plan to release a version for OpenSuse 15.2?

Ciao

G

From master or released package?

This is strange. Since 0.5.0 we're not using python2 anymore and since
0.5.1 there is no dependency on dbus. Which version are you using?

I was able to find some 0.5.2 builds available:

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:openSUSE:Factory:Apps/revelation

I tried to install the  revelation-0.5.2-1.1.x86_64.rpm   but I still get some problem that I did not understand how to solve:

warning: revelation-0.5.2-1.1.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 39e47a6b: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:
    python(abi) = 3.8 is needed by revelation-0.5.2-1.1.x86_64

which is the package I am missing here?

Maybe the package for Tumbleweed doesn't work in 15.2. I'm not a
OpenSUSE user, so I can't confirm this.

I've contacted Matthias Mailänder from OpenSUSE to check if a new
build of 0.5.3 can be done for OpenSUSE-15.2.

Meanwhile, you've three options:

1) Use flatpak. This would be easiest option.
2) I've built a package for OpenSUSE 15.2, 15.1 and Tumbleweed in
copr: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/mikelo2/revelation/
3) Install from git or tarball
