Bug Description

I have heard reports that the rhythmbox zeitgeist plugin is broken.

It may need to be ported to Python3 since other parts of Rhythmbox (like the Alternative Toolbar) are already using Python3.

If it does use Python2, then it probably needs to depend on libpeas-1.0-python2loader

If the Zeitgeist plugin is not fixed, it will eventually need to be removed from Ubuntu. (We can add it back if it's working again as long as Zeitgeist is still around.)

Debian already removed it.

  * Drop zeitgeist plugin, the plugin is not compatible with python 3 (Closes:

  * debian/control.in: Remove references to the context plugin
