pyBM will throw:
ERROR - Could not find any typelib for MessagingMenu
I have installed on my system all needed dependencies and I also run update PyBitmessage from source. Error under Ubuntu 14.04 and Elementary OS Luna.
[From terminal:]
This is actually 2 separate issues, although only 1 is a showstopper. It seems your system is indicating it will return ASCII encoded strings but is actually using some other encoding. I'm not sure how to deal with a system that lies like that other than doing a brute force check of unicode conversions of all month and day names/abbreviations at startup and falling back to a safe encoding and timeformat if something goes wrong.
I can't help with the MessaginMenu issue but it doesn't stop PyBitmessage from working. You just miss out on notifications or something.
Error is caused by local settings in Language settings (under Ubuntu 14.04).
Number/date/currency format in my setings is set to "polski" (it means polish; I attach screen grab).
If I change it to "English (United States)" pyBM starts correctly.
So you can easy duplicate this error on your system.
Reproduced on Debian 7.6 Bitmessage works but GUI doesn't show up.
This also happens for French: https://github.com/Bitmessage/PyBitmessage/issues/708
I cannot reproduce this on https://github.com/mailchuck/PyBitmessage, I think it was fixed in

. I tried German, French and Polish, both UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1/ISO-8859-2 and it works fine (there's no polish translation but it doesn't crash). When I revert the aforementioned commit, it crashes exactly as you describe. I have Ubuntu 14.04. Please reopen if you still experience this problem.
