bib file / no refs displayed/ pybliographer: warning: unable to convert `\textit'

Hi

I've been using pybliographer for years on linux, but am having trouble 
displaying my database (bibtex *.bib file) since upgrading to ubuntu 
11.10 using the gnome 3 desktop. The file appears to load by the 
pybliographic window stays blank.

Loading from the terminal returns a GTK warning:

smc <at> nakrasana:~$ pybliographic

(pybliographer:9283): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in 
module_path: "pixmap",

(pybliographer:9283): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in 
module_path: "pixmap",

(pybliographer:9283): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in 
module_path: "pixmap",

(pybliographer:9283): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in 
module_path: "pixmap",
This is Pybliographic 1.2.14 [Python 2.7.2, Gtk 2.24.6, PyGTK 2.24.0]

It looks to me like there is some dependency that was unmet when I 
installed pybliographer from synaptic software manager. I tried a 
reinstall with no success.

So I uninstalled the package with sysnaptic, and tried a reinstall from 
the command line:

pybliographer 1.2.14 broken?

Hello, I've been using Pybliographer for a long time and recently I
upgraded to version 1.2.14 (with Ubuntu 11.10), but it no longer opens
any .bib files!

I tried a minimalistic example (attached) starting from a command line
and got a message

pybliographer: warning: unable to convert `\pi'

Then I tried removing all embedded latex commands, and it doesn't give
a message but it doesn't display the records either! I only get a
blank window.

What is the problem? Am I missing something?

By the way, the dialog "Settings->Preferences" shows tabs for
different things, but all of them are empty !?

Thanks.

no access to medline/pubmed

I cannot download references from medline anymore - the query returns
status that "Query return no results" no matter what I search. It used
to work fine until recently.

I run Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, version 1.2.12

Any help on the matter is appreciated.

Colleagues,

I am using Ubuntu and 1.2.12 stable version of pybliographer and just
recently encounter the problem that I cannot fetch references from
medline anymore. I get the result "Your query returned no results" no
matter what I send as a query. Anybody knows why this could be a problem?

Thanks,

Vitaly

what is the status of pybliographer?

There hasn't been any activity here for a long time!  Am I writing
notes to myself?  Is anybody working on the code?

Are we better off to switch to some program that is actively maintained?
