I don't think you did. Instead, I think you ran into a different bug
with the same symptoms. The 10 year old bug is probably obsolete.
Ok, I couldn't help myself and had a deeper look. The following allows
gnome-tweaks to open for with items in the autostart folder.
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gtweak/utils.py", line 156
156c156
< self._desktop_file = appinfo.get_filename(appinfo)
---
self._desktop_file = appinfo.get_filename()
gnome-tweaks as packaged in testing/unstable does not contain
"appinfo.get_filename(appinfo)". It does contain "self._desktop_file =
appinfo.get_filename()".
I think what has happened is that you locally modified
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gtweak/utils.py with a short-term workaround
for pygobject regression #1117444, and after #1117444 was fixed more
correctly in pygobject, the workaround became harmful.
(The same workaround was proposed upstream in
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-tweaks/-/merge_requests/173 where I
asked for it to be rejected, because I could see that this would happen.
As a result it was never applied upstream.)
