ValueError: No such object: <RemoteObject: zim.gui.GtkInterface(file:///home/wes/Dropbox/Zim_Notebooks/Main)>

I"m not a "power user," so not sure either how to report bugs or tell if this is a new one. This may be the same as bug ​
#1275629, but I can't tell, sorry.

Anyway, Zim is failing to open.

I recently updated machine (apt-get update), so this may be related or not.

I'm running Zim ​0.60-1 under Ubuntu 14.04.

When trying to open Zim from a terminal, it returns:

==============================

==============================

With guidance on how to do so, I can happily provide any additional information you'd like on this.

Thanks!
