Problem with org.freedesktop.Geoclue.Providers.Hostip, running Qreator on Xubuntu-14.04

  • 772

I installed Qreator using apt-get on Xubuntu-14.04:

$ sudo apt-get install qreator

But the application fails to start!

When I try to run it via Terminal, the following error messages are printed and the program aborts:

$ qreator

dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.Geoclue.Providers.Hostip was not provided by any .service files

How can I fix this ?

    It seems that one dependency is missing (to provide org.freedesktop.Geoclue.Providers.Hostip).

    Try to install the following package:

    sudo apt-get install geoclue-hostip
