[Bug 1945661] [NEW] openstack commands fail with GTK3 error

[Amit Bhardwaj]

Public bug reported:

Openstack release: Wallaby
OS: Ubuntu 20.04 server edition
After installation of python3-openstackclient from apt, while setting up user, roles and project, I executed following command: 
openstack domain create --description "An Example Domain" example

Error: 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/openstack", line 6, in <module>
    from openstackclient.shell import main
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/openstackclient/shell.py", line 23, in <module>
    from osc_lib import shell
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/osc_lib/shell.py", line 24, in <module>
    from cliff import app
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cliff/app.py", line 22, in <module>
    import cmd2
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cmd2.py", line 585, in <module>
    _ = pyperclip.paste()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pyperclip/__init__.py", line 667, in lazy_load_stub_paste
    copy, paste = determine_clipboard()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pyperclip/__init__.py", line 558, in determine_clipboard
    return init_gi_clipboard()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pyperclip/__init__.py", line 167, in init_gi_clipboard
    gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0')
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 129, in require_version
    raise ValueError('Namespace %s not available' % namespace)

Had to install GTK3 to make openstack commands work but it is taking
huge time to get a response to the commands. The wait time after firing
any openstack cli command is around 30 seconds.

Anybody faced the issue? What is the fix for it if it exists?
