What was expected
=================

When `obgui` is run, the GUI should show up immediately.

What happens instead
====================

When `obgui` is run, the following error comes up repeatedly, seeming to
require the user to repeatedly click to continue past it (the first few
lines about a mismatch show up only on Ubuntu 16.10):
