gi.repository.GLib.Error: g-file-error-quark: Failed to open file “/home/ssbc/.sugar/default/org.laptop.WebActivity/data/schemas/gschemas.compiled”: open() failed: No such file or directory (4)

As a workaround, installing libglib2.0-dev package fixes the issue.
Browse is then able to start successfully.
