thanks


Hi,

I'm able to reproduce and fix the problem. For now, I can only reproduce
it on amd64, and after a reboot of my test machine.

The upstream bug relative to this is
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=566571

It seems fixed with python-gobject >= 2.17. But I can confirm that
applying the patch included [1] in the bug report solve the problem.

It's also a known problem on Ubuntu and Fedora :
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pygobject/+bug/378592
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=492737
