The best way to determine what the issue is on your system is to run this command, the last .desktop file to be opened is the problem:

This is correct, the gnome-user-share-webdav.desktop file from the gnome-user-share package contains a line Categories= and obamenu chokes on that line because it isn't prepared for a malformed categories line. Also, the parsing code is terrible in general. I strongly suggest that the parsing code be replaced with calls to PyXDG DesktopEntry classes: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pyxdg/ https://pyxdg.readthedocs.io/en/latest/desktopentry.html -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
