After much hair pulling and searching the web, I came across what seems to be a fix on fixmypcfree.com:
http://www.fixmypcfree.com/news/ubuntu-lucid-i-fix-another-problem- maybe-but-questions-about/ This seems to just backup what others are saying about the couchdb but I thought I would spell it out in simple terms and make note that this also helped me fix Ubuntu One and Empathy also. To paraphrase, it basically says to: ------------------fixmypcfree.com (begin)----------------------- 1. Delete all password related to Gwibber (applications > accessories > "Passwords and Encryption Keys"). But to get Empathy to work again. I deleted all my chat account passwords also. 2. Quit Gwibber then delete 3 files: /home/username/.cache/desktop- couch, /home/username/.config/desktop-couch, and /home/username/.local /desktop-couch. 3. Restart computer and then Gwibber, Ubuntu One, and Empathy should all request setup for user and passwords once you start them. ------------------fixmypcfree.com (end)----------------------- Note: That I am using Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 with Gwibber, Ubuntu One, and Empathy integrated and launch-able from the notification area. I have no idea what the effects will be in other builds if any. This fix or workaround seems to fix 4 issues that I did not know where related. It fixed Gwibber (wouldn't start), Ubuntu One (wouldn't connect), Empathy (wouldn't start), and high CPU usage by a service called beam. Once I applied the fix all of these problems seems to have resolved itself. I have not vetted the fix so I cannot confirm it is permanent but its working thus far. -- Gwibber crash on startup, KeyError: 'doc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/579668 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
