Thanks!

Renaming those two config files fixed it. Here are the contents of the old
files:

~/.config/pyroom/pyroom.conf:

[visual]
theme = custom
linespacing = 1
linenumber = 0

[editor]
session = True
autosavetime = 2
autosave = 1

~/.local/share/pyroom/custom.theme:
[theme]
foreground = #0000ffff0000
height = 0.75
padding = 8
width = 0.45
fontsize = 11
background = #000000000000
font = Droid Sans Mono
border = #000033330000

Investigating a bit more, it seems that the old custom theme was at fault.
The pyroom.conf file works ok on it's own, provided that the theme file has
been renamed, or you change the theme= line to something else; trying to
load pyroom with this theme causes this error. If you load with a default
pyroom.conf, but leave the custom.theme file there, it appears in the theme
config UI but doesn't actually work.

Anyway, problem solved, thanks!
