Hello segfault,

what's the right way to test the prototype? Do we need to be on a Tails
installation, or can I do it on a regular Debian box?

On a Debian box, I ran the setup.sh script, and then I tried to launch
tails-server. It failed like this:

    $ tails-server
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/usr/bin/tails-server", line 10, in <module>
        from gi.repository import Gtk
    ImportError: No module named 'gi'


Is this something I need to run from inside Tails?

[This is more of an IRC question, but we don't seem to all be in IRC, so here
you go.]

Cheers!
