It looks very much like some underlying python api was changed under its feet and it was not updated to match it. Please let me know if there is some additional information I can provide, or test I can perform, to ease solving this.

This appears to be a bug with the Startup Applications feature. The
app will run if you don't have any files in ~/.config/autostart/ . You
could temporarily move the files elsewhere to use the app and then
move them back, as a workaround.

Maybe this issue will be fixed when we get glib2.0 2.86 into Unstable
in the next few days: https://bugs.debian.org/1115340
