[Bug 1170929] Re: Settings crashes (core dumped, no traceback) when getting bad schema

[Martin Pitt]

This is due to glib asserting when you try to access a nonexisting
schema. This has been discussed many times and is indeed a bit ugly, but
an upstream design decision.

** Package changed: pygobject (Ubuntu) => glib2.0 (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: glib2.0 (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix
