Hi,
On a recent checkout of meld (25c40916), preferences do not open for
me and I get the following output on the terminal:
$ meld
(meld:2974): Gtk-WARNING **: unable to set child property `menu-label'
of type `gchararray' from value of type `PyObject'
Traceback (most recent call last):

Bisect leads me to the following:

Add gsetting and initial UI for merge file order preference
I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 and I install meld with the command
sudo ./setup.py install --prefix "/usr"
I can run meld fine locally with ./bin/meld and have no particular
need to use the latest Git version. I'm just testing for fun (and so
that I can make some feature requests knowing they haven't been
implemented).
Note that when testing, I did not uninstall any previous version so I
cannot rule out the possibility of some previously used files causing
problems (which would be my fault). Let me know if you want me to look
into this possibility.
Am I missing a dependency?
Thanks for all of your work, Kai and others!
Best,
Scott
