mcomix doesn't open

[Alexius]

I have fresh install of Leap 15.4, and when I tried to install mcomix it will not run. I have messed with it a bit, and mcomix worked for me before, but after what appears to be a successful install, if I try to run it it fails to open. Here's the errors when I tried to launch it from a command line:

alexius@Volstagg:~$ mcomix  
Traceback (most recent call last): 
  File "/usr/bin/mcomix", line 11, in <module> 
    load_entry_point('mcomix==2.0.2', 'console_scripts', 'mcomix')() 
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/mcomix-2.0.2-py3.6.egg/mcomix/run.py", line 124, in run 
    require_version('Gtk', '3.0') 
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 130, in require_version 
    (namespace, version)) 
ValueError: Namespace Gtk not available for version 3.0

It looks to me like it's telling me that python or Gtk isn't installed, but both are on my system. I feel like someone more experienced than me will be able to look at this and tell me 'It's saying XXXX is missing, install that' but I haven't been able to find the think that is missing. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Is python3-gobject-Gdk installed?

[Alexius]

I just double checked: Yes.

alexius@Volstagg:~$ sudo zypper install python3-gobject-Gdk  
Loading repository data...

'python3-gobject-Gdk' is already installed. 
No update candidate for 'python3-gobject-Gdk-3.42.0-150400.1.48.x86_64'. The highest available version is already installed.

Installed mcomix from multimedia:apps and working.

So please post:

zypper  lr -d

Have you used pip to install some python libs or Programms?

    require_version('Gtk', '3.0')

You need typelib-1_0-Gtk-3_0.

This did it!

Anyone know how to get a message to whoever lists the dependencies to include that?

I should have been more clear. I did not have typelib-1_0-Gtk-3_0 installed, and once I installed it, mcomix opened normally.

Thank you, I will try to do that.
