[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#816156: Python dbus Attribute error

[Daniel Peterson]

Package: python-dbus
Version: 1.2.2-1

When I try to use the onscreen keyboard onboard, I get an error message
from python-dbus init file. Below is a transcript of the error.

daniel at x230t:~$ onboard
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/Onboard/utils.py:16: PyGIWarning: Gtk was

I am not sure what is causing this. It appears on two computers both
running sid. I tried moving to the version of python-dbus in experimental
and this did not fix the problem. Interestingly, I am able to run the
following

daniel at x230t:~$ python3
Python 3.5.1+ (default, Feb 24 2016, 11:28:57)
[GCC 5.3.1 20160220] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import dbus.exceptions as exceptions
>>>

with no error. I am not sure why it does not work in a script but does work
if I import the module manually.
