[Sugar-devel] Errors while Porting Video Editor

[Gonzalo Odiard]

Please do not fork Pitivi.
You should work with project developers to make a presentation layer for
Sugar.
The way in which you are working will have an activity outdated before
completion.
The error you are having has to do with this ill-defined startup class in
the file activity.info

[gonzalo at nautilus logs]$ cat in.seeta.Pitivi-1.log
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/sugar-activity", line 21, in <module>
    main.main()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sugar/activity/main.py", line 111,
in main
    module = __import__(module_name)
ImportError: No module named application
