indicator-cpufreq crashes when logging into desktop

[Dan Bastianello]

The error when running from terminal is:
~$ indicator-cpufreq
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/indicator_cpufreq/indicator.py:22: PyGIWarning: Gtk was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Gtk', '4.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.
  from gi.repository import Gtk
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/importer.py", line 142, in load_module
    introspection_module = get_introspection_module(namespace)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/module.py", line 257, in get_introspection_module
    module = IntrospectionModule(namespace, version)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/module.py", line 109, in __init__
    repository.require(namespace, version)
gi.RepositoryError: Requiring namespace 'Gtk' version '3.0', but '4.0' is already loaded

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/indicator-cpufreq", line 77, in <module>
    from indicator_cpufreq.indicator import MyIndicator
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/indicator_cpufreq/indicator.py", line 23, in <module>
    from gi.repository import AppIndicator3 as appindicator
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/importer.py", line 144, in load_module
    raise ImportError(e)
ImportError: Requiring namespace 'Gtk' version '3.0', but '4.0' is already loaded

I do have a solution though, which is by adding to the imports in '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/indicator_cpufreq/indicator.py' the following:

import gi <<< this line
gi.require_version("Gtk", "3.0") <<< and this line
from gi.repository import GLib
from gi.repository import Gtk
from gi.repository import AppIndicator3 as appindicator
<snip>

The indicator-cpufreq app will launch successfully.

The indicator.py.patch provided here does its job. indicator-cpufreq seem to work correctly and does not fail.
