StringIO is used in mylaunchpad:1142 but never imported

hi, im trying to use it in raspbian (right now im trying from a VNC session) and get this:

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ mylaunchpad
Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0".
Hidden imported: set([])
Favorites imported: set([])

buf = StringIO.StringIO()
NameError: global name 'StringIO' is not defined

any idea? :D thx for all!

I can start mylaunchpad now but no icons are shown. There are some categories on top if I install menu-xdg (in debian). It looks like the menu items are not directly found from this kind of menu file which only includes directories which then include items. Trying xfce-applications, I get "ocurrio un problema". This is on a system where no X server etc was installed and I installed things I needed and as such may be missing some packages compared to a standard full distribution install.

Hi, I am on Arch Linux, Hefftor Linux version 2021-01-11.

I was trying to install the launcher today (package from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mylaunchpad-git/), but got stuck due to missing dependencies.

The stack trace after makepkg -s is the following:

==> Installing missing dependencies...
    error: target not found: python2-lxml
    error: target not found: gnome-menus2
    error: target not found: python2-distutils-extra
==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies.   

Trying to install the missing dependencies with :

sudo pacman -U --asdep python2-lxml
sudo pacman -U --asdep python2-cairo

returns .....

 error: 'python2-lxml': could not find or read package
 error: 'python2-cairo': could not find or read package

Is there still a way to install the launcher on Arch?

when you try not display in taskbar window lost focus!

I installed Ubuntu 16.04 and tried mylaunchpad , unfortunately it fails while parsing gnome-application. And all others except unitycc loads blank page, no icons.
Is it related to python-lxml-3.5.0 or is it faulty gnome-application xml structure?
I hope somebody helps me fix it.
The error I get

Hi
Thank you for sharing your project. I like it since it's lightweight and fast.
I'd like to run it on my Ubuntu but it's not compatible.
I wish you port it to run in Ubuntu.
Regards.

there is some mistake in github instructions says:

Dependences: python-gmenu pygtk pyhton-lxml python-cairo python-imaging

and should be (python-lxml it's wrong writed):

Dependences: python-gmenu pygtk python-lxml python-cairo python-imaging

and i also need to install: python-distutils-extra

thx!
