Details

Description:

Additional info:
* package version(s)
broken: terminator 1.92-1
works: terminator 1.91-6

* config and/or log files etc.
I do NOT have python-configobj (or python2-configobj) installed

* my best guess as to why this is happening:
In the upstream repo the included configobj library is removed in a3a673,
but the python-configobj package is not marked as a dependency for the new 1.92-1 arch package.

* note:
I did not report this upstream because I believe the idea is for configobj to henceforth be a dependency
of terminator, this should probably be handled in the arch package system?

Steps to reproduce:
1. Make sure that python-configobj is NOT installed
2. Install terminator 1.92-1 via pacman
3. Try to run terminator, it crashes because it cannot find configobj

Steps to fix:
1. Install the python-configobj package
2. Run terminator, fixed
This task depends upon

$ terminator
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/terminator", line 48, in <module>
import terminatorlib.optionparse
File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/terminatorlib/optionparse.py", line 24, in <module>
from . import config
File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/terminatorlib/config.py", line 75, in <module>
from configobj import ConfigObj, flatten_errors
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'configobj'


And as mentioned above, installing (community/python-configobj 5.0.6-7) fixes the missing dependency.

Another confirmation after upgrading today, we now require `python-configobj` to be added as a hard dependency as part of the new python3 update; it's outlined in the upstream INSTALL file for us. https://github.com/gnome-terminator/terminator/blob/master/INSTALL

Installing python-configobj also fixes this problem for me.
