Hi,
I saw an intriguing sounding package in the updates mail, memaker. Though it fails to launch.
If I try it from the command line, I get this unfamiliar set of messages in return:
INFO:root:python-launchpadlib not found! Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/memaker", line 55, in <module> from MeMaker.app import MeMakerApp File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/MeMaker/app.py", line 41, in <module> from utils.paths import MeMakerPaths File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/MeMaker/utils/paths.py", line 23, in <module> from xdg import BaseDirectory as xdg ImportError: No module named xdg
Trying what seems the first obvious thing to look for, produces no results: sudo dnf search launchpadlib
It was installed with: sudo dnf search memaker
Which dragged in these dependencies.

The requires have been fixed in more recent versions. Installing "python2-pyxdg" should fix it.

Yep, that did the trick. How did you work out the required package from that information?

The important part was "ImportError: No module named xdg". I did a dnf search for "xdg" to see if there is a python package and I saw there was one for both python2 and python3. When I did a repoquery on the memaker package, I found that it uses python2 and it also had a dependency on python2-pyxdg. I looked in koji and found that the last changelog entry was about adding missing dependencies, but that's only in F28.
