[Python-apps-team] Bug#910626: exfalso: not all required libraries are installed

[Álvaro Herrera]

Package: exfalso
Version: 3.7.1-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I ran 'apt install exfalso' and tried to run it, but it fails:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/exfalso", line 74, in <module>
    main(util.argv)
  File "/usr/bin/exfalso", line 63, in main
    session.init("exfalso")
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/quodlibet/qltk/session.py", line 29,
in init
    client = bus.get_object("org.gnome.SessionManager", client_path)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/bus.py", line 241, in get_object
    follow_name_owner_changes=follow_name_owner_changes)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 244, in
__init__
    _dbus_bindings.validate_object_path(object_path)
TypeError: validate_object_path() argument 1 must be string, not None


I suppose this means I'm missing a packaged library, but I don't know which one
it is.

I expected that exfalso would be able to run out-of-the-box after installing.
I tried
installing package quodlibet, but that didn't fix the problem.
