[Bug 1574081] Re: python traceback on start

[marmuta]

@pon tech, this is a regression with Onboard 1.2.0, unfortunately. There
are a couple of options:

- Try to install AppIndicator3 and its typelib. On Ubuntu this would be
gir1.2-appindicator3, however http://packages.linuxmint.com doesn't seem
to know it. Perhaps it can't be easily installed then, but I'm not too
familiar with Mint.

- Update Onboard to a later revision. You can get a development snapshot from our PPA at 
https://launchpad.net/~onboard/+archive/ubuntu/snapshots. 
Untested on Mint, but I believe this would work for you, as Sarah is based on Ubuntu 16.04.

-  Remove the offending line yourself:
$ sudo nano /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/Onboard/Version.py 
and remove or comment out with '#' line 30, containing:
gi.require_version('AppIndicator3', '0.1')
Ctrl-X, Yes, Return
This change will be reverted when a new Onboard package is installed, but chances are the new one will have the bug already fixed.
