Oh my bad, I even forgot to search which package installed /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/_gi_cairo.i386-linux-gnu_d.so. It's python-gi-dbg. Then this bug should be marked as minor and be only about the missing error message. python-gi-cairo is only "suggested" by python-gi and the failure to load the module produce no message whatsoever. I see the code kinda talks about a TypeError exception. But it looks like it's never raised. Or maybe this bug should be maked as invalid and I report another one? Best regards, Celelibi
