Bug#698459: python3-gi: Gtk.CssProvider.load_from_data won't accept str

[Tony Houghton]

Package: python3-gi
Version: 3.4.2-2
Severity: normal

I'm not sure whether this bug is in python3-gi or gir1.2-gtk-3.0, but
the same code works in python 2 and not in python 3.

I have:

style_provider = Gtk.CssProvider()
style_provider.load_from_data(
        """* {
        -GtkButton-default-border : 0;
        -GtkButton-default-outside-border : 0;
        -GtkButton-inner-border: 0;
        -GtkWidget-focus-line-width : 0;
        -GtkWidget-focus-padding : 0;
        padding: 0;
        }""")

and with python3 the second line generates this error:

TypeError: Item 0: Must be number or single byte string, not str
