Veromix plasma-applet doesn't work
« on: December 25, 2012, 09:38:43 PM »
Last update broke Veromix  "A mixer for the PulseAudio sound server. Veromix is a mixer for the Pulseaudio sound server. " it only shows an empty screen

Veromix is the best way I have to control volume since Kmix is awkward to use, I tried to reinstall and nothing happened.

I will appreciate any help. This are the updated packages:

Confirmed.

I updated the same packages as Crow, with the exception of Calibre.

After that I also updated PulseAudio from testing, so I naturally thought that was what broke Veromix, and I was just going to report it in the testing section when I read Crow's post. I'll revert to the old versions of the PulseAudio packages tomorrow to remove suspicions, but if Crow hasn't installed anything from testing, the PulseAudio packages are probably innocent.

I suspect it is the update to python-dbus that has caused the problem.

Probably Veromix needs to be rebuilt against it.
