I update about once a week, and after I updated yesterday tomboy won’t start. I tried from command line, and tried different start options as well. It looks like there is a DBus error of some kind. I opened a bug report on tomboy’s github, but thought I might check here to see if someone with more expertise might identify where the problem is. Here is the error I get:
localhost:~> tomboy --start-here
