[Bug 837261] Re: function() got an unexpected keyword argument 'icon'

[Martin Pitt]

This looks like a caught Python exception, not an error message from
C/Vala. I suppose oem-config has something like a catch-all "except:"
somewhere which causes the error message to be displayed in a dialog
box? Perhaps it should rather crash normally and have apport pick up the
traceback, so that we get a sensible stack trace?
