The vast majority of Rhythmbox plugins fail to load when I try to activate them. Here’s the output generated when I try to load the cover art plugin:
** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GstObject)
Traceback (most recent call last):

type_register(cls, namespace.get('__gtype_name__'))
TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases

(rhythmbox:4340): libpeas-WARNING **: Error loading plugin 'artdisplay'
I can’t quite tell if this is an error with Rhythmbox, GObject, the python bindings, or something else. Any tips?
