    I get this error when executing “sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vala-team/ppa”.

    Ubuntu team, please replace gwibber with pino!!
    Gwibber is the worst I’ve ever seen

  3. Great ! I like… but …
    -1- with 2 accounts (Identi.ca + Twitter), impossible to have both at the same time, or both in different tab… I must go in a menu to switch to the 2nd account 🙁

    -2- when I switch from one to the 2nd accound, Pino reload messages … take some seconds (it’s not keep in memory ?)

    -3- no option to configure the color of the messages or background (I want different colors between my Identi.ca and my Twitter) …

    Seem great, but need very little improvement

    😉

  4. ok, I see …
    I really need the futur Pino : 0.3.x 😉

    General features for 0.3.x release:

    Support for multi accounts without switching <— Great !!!
    Support for OAuth in Twitter
    Support for any other services, not only for twitter-like
    Using librest for Twitter (and maybe for Facebook)

    😉

    Complete coincidence you publish this article on the same day I’m trying to work out how to install it…

    +1 on rEnr3n’s comment – I’m getting this:

    gpg: requesting key 7DAAC99C from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com
    gpgkeys: HTTP fetch error 7: couldn’t connect to host
    gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
    gpg: Total number processed: 0

  6. rEnr3n says:

    It lacks feature to make the tweet read/unread. It’s not flexible. I hope it could be in the next versions.

    @Chris Keyserver might be down at that time. I’ve installed it successfully after few hours.

    There are no packages for lucid. Development on this project kinda died off a while ago. Which is a pity as it showed potential. Gwibber is a terrible client, but sadly the only one that I’ve found even remotely usable on Ubuntu which is a sad state of affairs indeed.
