That's annoying. You could try to redirect sys.stdout/sys.stderrr to see that 
provides more information. There is a __boot__.py file in the bundle that is 
loaded early during startup of the application, adding lines like these should 
redirect that output to a temporary file:

import sys
sys.stdout = open('/tmp/program.out', 'w')
sys.stderr = open('/tmp/program.err', 'w')
