Bug#762657: python-gi: Can't register with accessibility bus

[Olivier Berger]

Package: python-gi
Version: 3.12.2-1
Severity: normal

Hi.

I'm not sure this is exactly related to the Python GTK3 bindings and pygobject, but the basic upstream test program exhibits the issue.

I'm trying :
#!/usr/bin/python
from gi.repository import Gtk

win = Gtk.Window()
win.connect("delete-event", Gtk.main_quit)
win.show_all()
Gtk.main()

(source : http://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.org/en/latest/)

Here's the symptom :
$ python test.py 

** (test.py:8677): WARNING **: Couldn't register with accessibility bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

$ python3 test.py 

** (test.py:8816): WARNING **: Couldn't register with accessibility bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

I'm running this on a Jessie system under a XFCE4 session.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
