ImportError: cannot import name irp

Bugs and issues Linux
#1

Hello Folks,
I have just setup a clean install of Ubuntu mate 17.04. Installed insync by adding entries to apt config and it installed fine.
But if I “insync start” I get nothing, no errors, no icon on the tray and no sign of insync in ps output.

So tried with no daemon mode -
dbannon@Desktop:~$ insync start --no-daemon
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “”, line 6, in
File “main.py”, line 128, in
File “main__insync.py”, line 180, in
File “main__insync.py”, line 37, in main
File “ideskmain/client.py”, line 6, in
File “idesknet/requester.py”, line 4, in
ImportError: cannot import name irp

Don’t see anything like this in the forum …

@eroz: Apologies for not replying sooner. The repo for Debian Stretch should have been updated. You can also install the latest package from here: New Insync version: 1.3.17.
