That I don't know. If you are willing to ask gajim developers point them
to this report, and please let us know their reply.

I contacted mercurial devs about demandimport failing with the _thread
module, and one of them told me to just blacklist _thread for
demandimport in the gajim-omemo code.

I still feel that the issue should be addressed in a more general way,
but I guess for now I'll suggest the gajim-omemo devs to just blacklist
_thread.

Ciao,
