I successfully synced OfflineIMAP using Dovecot last week, but I
dist-upgraded to Debian Sid since, and now it won't sync. Running
./offlineimap.py --info, I get:

What does this mean? For good measure I deleted ~/Maildir and
~/.offlineimap just before this.
Furthermore, Although OfflineIMAP exits because of an error, it doesn't
set a non-zero exit code.
