Doesn't run with latest hamster-lib (0.13.0)

[dflock]

If you update to latest hamster-lib - by running pip install -U hamster-gtk, then hamster-gtk will fail to start:

$ pip install -U hamster-gtk

I still get this error on Ubuntu 18.04 and installing hamster-gtk by the following commands:

sudo apt install xvfb virtualenvwrapper python3-gi python-gi gir1.2-gtk-3.0 libglib2.0-dev libgtk-3-dev
echo 'source /usr/share/virtualenvwrapper/virtualenvwrapper.sh' >> ~/.profile
source ~/.profile
git clone https:/projecthamster/hamster-gtk.git
mkvirtualenv hamster-gtk
workon hamster-gtk
toggleglobalsitepackages
pip install hamster-gtk
hamster-gtk

I can confirm this behaviour. Reopening the issue. Will try to deal with this in the next week or two. Sorry I can't commit more right now.

@alessanderbotti It appears the only reason it fails is because the PyPI package is not updated. If you use the code in develop branch. It is runnable.
