Meld - compare files not working
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Hello. Using Meld for files comparison is not working. It says that Icon 'meld-change-apply-right' is not present in theme Arc.

Traceback (most recent call last):

    tab = self.diff_methods[self.diff_type](compare_paths)

Please install python-gtk2 and let me know if that resolves the issue. Hard to debug here given all the python libraries I have installed already.

I already have python-gtk2 installed on my system.
I get this error only when I'm using compare files option. Comparing folders option is working flawlessly.

Understood. I'll see if updating it to the latest release (3.16.3) helps. Apparently I missed that one >.<

After update everything is working in Meld. Thanks @JoshStrobl.
