Thanks for the issue report!
Have you installed whipper on Fedora 29 using the native package provided by the distribution?

In the meantime let's ping @mruszczyk which is whipper's package contributor for Fedora.

Have you installed whipper on Fedora 29 using the native package provided by the distribution?

yes

[mruszczyk]

Can you try installing libcdio with dnf? I can check if something changed recently but I thought one of the dependencies pulled it in. I’ll take a look tomorrow to be sure.

[pyropingvin]

$ sudo dnf install libcdio

Package libcdio-2.0.0-3.fc29.x86_64 is already installed.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!

[mruszczyk]

What version of pycdio do you have installed? The current soname for libcdio on f29 is libcdio.so.18 so something is looking for an older version of libcdio, was this a fresh install or an upgrade from a previous version of fedora?

[pyropingvin]

pycdio-2.0.0-3.fc29.x86_64
this is upgrade from F28, but I have same problem on F28 with whipper 0.7.0. I just don't ask for help because i have hope when i upgrade to F29 the problem will go away.

[mruszczyk]

Did you ever have whipper installed via source or installed pycdio via pip? I would try removing pycdio via dnf, then pip uninstall pycdio then reinstall pycdio from dnf.

[pyropingvin]

sudo dnf remove pycdio
Dependencies resolved.

[JoeLametta]

Any news about this one?

[pyropingvin]

No new news. I reinstall every package related to whipper dependencies, but that don't change anything, So I don't now what to do. Everything is installed from official repositories.

[JoeLametta]

@mruszczyk Any ideas about what may be causing this issue?

[pyropingvin]

I find solution. The problem was local not upstream. I noticed in traceback that Whipper try to import some files from local ~/.local/lib/pithon2.7/... directorium. I guess it's a remnant of my previous old Mint installation when I build it myself. So I just delete local files and Whipper start to work without problem.
Thanks to everyone.

[MerlijnWajer]

Thanks. Perhaps check your PYTHONPATH.
