gnome-tweak-tool unable to successfully launch

[rustylynch]

Attempting to start the gnome-tweak-tool from the gnome desktop results in nothing apparently happening. Checking the process table I can see 'python3 /usr/bin/gnome-tweak-tool' is running, so after killing it and starting directly on the command line I can see:

$ python3 /usr/bin/gnome-tweak-tool
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/gtweak/widgets.py", line 164, in init
self.settings = GSettingsSetting(schema_name, **options)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/gtweak/gsettings.py", line 124, in init
raise GSettingsMissingError(schema_name)
gtweak.gsettings.GSettingsMissingError: org.gnome.nautilus.desktop

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

logging.info("GSetting missing %s" % (e.message))
AttributeError: 'GSettingsMissingError' object has no attribute 'message'

Note that the tool works in 21600. I can swupd verify back to the old version and see it work, and then update and see it break again

The problem is that the org.gnome.nautilus.gschema.xml file installed by the nautilus package has removed the desktop schema that the gnome-tweaks-tool requires.

@rustylynch Thanks for the report, I reverted the nautilus update, so gnome-tweak-tool is no longer broken while I look at the fix :-)

actually... it might be better to pull in on patch from the upstream gnome-tweak-tool

@rustylynch I cherry-picked the patch you pointed out and verify it works, should be fixed in the following updates. Will close this bug once the fix is released
