Troubleshooting LittleBrotherTaskbar

This page tries to help you with troubleshooting the most common problems with running LittleBrotherTaskbar.

Trouble finding the GTK development files

If you run into any complaints about not being able to find GTK components, make sure you have the following packages installed

  • libgtk-3-dev
  • libpulse-dev

On a Debian based system issue

apt-get install libgtk-3-dev libpulse-dev

and then try to re-install LittleBrotherTaskbar.

Trouble finding the library libwx_baseu-3.0.so

Unfortunately, there seems to be some incompatibility between some versions of the Python setuptools and the way that wxPython builds its libraries. In this case the following error will occur when installing the wxPython PIP package:

copying symlink wx/libwx_baseu-3.0.so -> build/lib.linux-x86_64-3.5/wx/libwx_baseu-3.0.so
error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'build/lib.linux-x86_64-3.5/wx/libwx_baseu-3.0.so'

One way to tackle this is to explicitly downgrade the setuptools package. In the current CI setup, using version 51.1.2 worked successfully:

pip install setuptools==51.1.2

After that try to re-install the LittleBrotherTaskbar.
