gnome-art won't start on mint 5.0 BETA

[lamegaptop]

Greetings,

Cannot start gnome-art on Mint 5.0 Beta I have --purge removed and reinstalled. No joy I don't know what the output is telling me but it certainly looks as if it may be an issue with ruby.

rb@rb-laptop ~ $ gnome-art

That's because the server art.gnome.org is sending wrong data.
They are working on a solution on this!
You have to wait for a server-side solution.
