Description Thomas Kemmer 2016-12-12 22:04:43 UTC 
Applet configuration dialogs do not show up without having Python 3 support enabled in dev-python/dbus-python. Attempting to open any applet configuration dialog from a terminal (via cinnamon-settings) reveals the following error:

$ cinnamon-settings
Loading Applets module
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/xlet-settings.py", line 9, in <module>
    from JsonSettingsWidgets import *
  File "/usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/bin/JsonSettingsWidgets.py", line 2, in <module>
    from SettingsWidgets import *
  File "/usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/bin/SettingsWidgets.py", line 8, in <module>
    import dbus
ImportError: No module named 'dbus'

After enabling Python 3 support (USE="python_targets_python3_4" emerge -1av dev-python/dbus-python), the error is gone and the dialogs are once again shown correctly.

I'm afraid the new gnome-extra/cinnamon-3.2.6 ebuild is affected in the same manner.
Comment 4 Thomas Kemmer 2017-01-08 12:01:18 UTC 
…as is the cinnamon-3.2.7 ebuild.

Fixed in 823d962. Thanks, @SoapGentoo!
