Hmmmmm. Mark, did you ever have this error more than once? Martin and I are fairly certain that this is just some kind of one-off fluke, it really can only be explained by stale packages... there is just no way that this can possibly be happening in Saucy. Seriously, take a look at the file referenced by the error message (open it with your favorite text editor):
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/friends/main.py There just isn't a call to threads_init in this file! And there hasn't been one since **May 7th**, either. The only other explanation might be that you are actually experiencing some different bug, and apport is sending you to this one by mistake, but I'm not sure how that would happen, either. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to friends in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1177047 Title: friends-dispatcher crashed with TypeError in /usr/lib/python3/dist- packages/friends/main.py: threads_init() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given Status in “friends” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: This occurred after running friends-dispatcher from Terminal.
