Realizing that these are python errors, I recalled that I have installed
a non-Debian (i.e., miniconda) version of Python that sits at the front
of my path. Adding `export GRASS_PYTHON=python2.7` to my .bashrc seems
to correct this issue. I have both the Debian python3.5 and the
miniconda python3.5, but using either as the value of GRASS_PYTHON
causes problems.

So I have solved my own problem, unless there will be new issues arising
from using python2.7 instead of python3+?

Thanks for your patience.
