Desktop: Ubuntu package nautilus integration not working

[nickvergessen]

I recently changed from https://launchpad.net/~nextcloud-devs/+archive/ubuntu/client to https://launchpad.net/~nextcloud-devs/+archive/ubuntu/client-beta and since the beta2 update the nautilus integration is not working anymore.

Also the nextcloud binary has no beautiful icon anymore :crying_cat_face:

cc @ivaradi

anything wrong with?

sudo apt install nextcloud-client nextcloud-client-nautilus

[ivaradi]

The install command looks good to me.

I know the reason for the missing icon, and will hopefully provide a solution soon. (The .desktop file refers to the icon with a small n, but the icon file's name starts with a capital N.)

However, I installed the beta client in an Ubuntu 16.04 VM, and the Nautilus installation worked for me, although I had to restart Nautilus after installation. Have you also restarted Nautilus (or rebooted the machine)? Which Ubuntu distribution are you using?

[nickvergessen]

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Release:    18.04
Codename:   bionic

(Default ubuntu using gnome)

I rebooted my machine after restarting nautilus did not help.

Any more info I can help with?

Seems to be working here, same OS and PPA.

As you can see above, I have created a pull request, that should fix the icon issue. Please, monitor the request. Once it is merged, the Ubuntu package will be created automatically.

About the Nautillus integration: I just tested installing the client into a vanilla Bionic install in a VirtualBox VM, and the integration worked right away (without even restarting anything) for me too. So it must be some local issue.

Could you try killing the Nautilus process (nautilus-desktop) and then start it in a terminal? It should normally print a message like Initializing Nextcloud-client-nautilus extension, but in your case it might print an error message, that could help resolving the issue.

Well the error here might actually explain it:

sys:1: PyGIWarning: Nautilus was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Nautilus', '3.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.

Indeed, the error code indicates that the path of your sync folder most likely contains some non-ASCII characters, which are not handled correctly by the plugin. This should be fixed in #652.
