Error on startup with any plugin: ImportError: No module named ScreenCloud

[neodc]

1.3 on ubuntu 14.04, when I start screencloud with any plugin activated (here sftp) I get the error :

Error in file: /home/neodc/.local/share/data/screencloud/ScreenCloud/plugins/sftp/main.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named ScreenCloud

And if I try to open its configuration I get :

Failed to call SFTPUploader.showSettingsUI()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name SFTPUploader
Traceback (most recent call last):

@olav-st, I was able to resolve a similar issue with the FTP plugin on Korora 24( Fedora 24 ) by adding the following lines to the top of ~/.local/share/data/screencloud/ScreenCloud/plugins/ftp/main.py
import sys
sys.path.insert(1, '/usr/share/screencloud/modules')

Then I just needed to run:
sudo ln -s /usr/include/python2.7 /usr/local/include/python2.7

Pretty sure that's not a 'clean' fix, but I hope that helps someone.

I've tried above on 14.04. There is no 'No module named ScreenCloud' anymore, but the following occurs on starting ScreenCloud:

Error in file: /home/sim/.local/share/data/screencloud/ScreenCloud/plugins/ftp/main.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 3, in
File "/usr/share/screencloud/modules/ScreenCloud.py", line 1, in
from PythonQt.QtCore import QSettings
ImportError: cannot import name QSettings

ScreenCloud actually starts after that, but attempt to open FTP settings produces:

Failed to call FTPUploader.showSettingsUI()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
NameError: name 'ftp_u' is not defined

@simgislab It would appear that some of the required libraries for Screencloud to install are not available on Ubuntu 14.04 as shown below. Not sure if @olav-st would address that or not, but that's what I was able to find thus far.
