No, it did not work. Here is the error:
  File "/usr/share/python-support/timekpr/timekpr-gui.py", line 585, in

Sorry, I don't have time to do more testing right now. I had to do some changes (import os.getlogin() among other things). So bzr pull before you do anything more!

I also found this:
http://bugs.python.org/issue678077

stating that os.getlogin() is not good! I tried pwd.getpwuid(os.getuid())[0], but that returned 'root' as user...
