superpaper: Unable to start Superpaper in Arch Linux

Trying to run the portable version of Superpaper i get the following:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "superpaper.pyw", line 28, in <module> ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dbus' [9080] Failed to execute script superpaper

(I’m pretty sure my system have python-dbus installed)

Now if I try to start Superpaper from the script in this repo i get the following: Traceback (most recent call last): File "superpaper.pyw", line 2638, in <module> main() File "superpaper.pyw", line 2632, in main tray_loop() File "superpaper.pyw", line 2624, in tray_loop app = App(False) NameError: name 'App' is not defined

I’m still getting the dbus error with the portable versions. However, as others have mentioned, installing wxPython solved the second case (remember it was marked as optional dependency).

Just an update: Installed wxPython from openSUSE’s repository and wverything now works. I have cloned the repository, to get the latest changes with the cli fix and it works correctly.

Just testing on KDE Neon 5.15 (latest version based on 18.04 LTS). I’m getting the same DBUS error with the portable version downloaded from here: https://github.com/hhannine/Superpaper/releases

However doing a manual install like so solves the problem: git clone https://github.com/hhannine/Superpaper.git sudo apt -y install python3 python3-pip python3-dbus pip3 install Pillow pip3 install screeninfo pip3 install system_hotkey pip3 install -U -f https://extras.wxpython.org/wxPython4/extras/linux/gtk3/ubuntu-18.04 wxPython Superpaper/superpaper.pyw
