[Bug 48308] Many errors in gedit after upgrading from breezy to dapper

[Bruce Sherwood]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gedit

After upgrading from breezy to dapper, gedit emits a large number of
strange error messages, as shown below. (And what does gedit have to do
with Python? Is it written in Python? Am I missing some piece of Python
after the upgrade?) I tried reinstalling gedit, which made no
difference.
