I have recently installed Ubuntu cleaner following http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/12/free-space-ubuntu-cleaner-janitor-app.

The problem I am facing now is that the icon appears, but each time I click on it, nothing happens. Only the mouse cursor is indicating that it's loading the program, but nothing else happens.

I have tried ubuntu-cleaner in terminal and this is the outcome:

$ ubuntu-cleaner 
Traceback (most recent call last): 
File "/usr/bin/ubuntu-cleaner", line 7, in <module> 
    import dbus ImportError: No module named dbus

so what does that mean?

  • Close it then start it from the terminal as ubuntu-cleaner then edit your question and include any errors you get in the terminal window here. – Parto Dec 19 '16 at 07:46
  • Also since it's just a component of the good old Ubuntu Tweak, you might also like to try an updated version of Ubuntu Tweak (including one for xenial) together with a number of other very useful tools from here: https://launchpad.net/~trebelnik-stefina/+archive/ubuntu/ubuntu-tweak – Sadi Dec 19 '16 at 12:32

Converting the OP's comments to an answer:

A solution was posted here on Ubuntu Forums.

Installing the package python-dbus should fix the issue.
