Could anyone test it? I think this should be backported since the bug
prevents from starting gui but I need someone with different locale to test
it. I think the error message contains non-ascii characters which is the
problem then. Sorry I forgot about this in the last days and nobody else
really paid attention to this one. Or we can completely skip loading
metadata addon modules for the release as it is now on Windows. Any opinion?
