Ubuntu-mate-welcome No module named 'apt daemon'

Support & Help Requests

Hello. I am running kubuntu 18.04. I wanted to use the software boutique because there was a piece of software that I know I’ve installed using the boutique in the past but couldn’t remember the name of it. I did “snap install ubuntu-mate-welcome --classic” to install. Unfortunately, when I try to run Welcome I get the following error.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/snap/ubuntu-mate-welcome/169/usr/bin/ubuntu-mate-welcome", line 51, in <module> from aptdaemon.client import AptClient ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'aptdaemon'
I then installed ‘aptdaemon’ using “apt install aptdaemon” and I now get this error.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/snap/ubuntu-mate-welcome/169/usr/bin/ubuntu-mate-welcome", line 52, in <module> from aptdaemon.gtk3widgets import AptErrorDialog, AptConfirmDialog, \ ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'aptdaemon.gtk3widgets'
I’m sure this isn’t intended behaviour and I’m sure it has something to do with the fact that I’m running Kubuntu and not a gtk variant desktop but I don’t know what the right way to solve this would be or if there is a dependency missing from the snap or something. So I’ve given up for now, with the hopes that someone can help me.

Any help would be appreciated. :slight_smile:

Please file a bug report on launchpad. Thanks

Okay, I believe that I have done so.

However, and I hope this is received in the way intended, it would have been very helpful to have more specific advice. If I was someone who didn’t know what launchpad was, or hadn’t previously made an account with it, I would have found this advice hard to follow. It might be helpful, in future, to supply a link to launchpad or even the specific project on launchpad so that a user can find the correct place to submit the bug report.

Thank you for directing me to the correct place to ask for help.
