Should be fixed with 1.3.0-2 rpm. It will complain about missing frei0r plugins but, as Mageia doesn't seem to have them, it should rather deserve a new bug report if they're really needed.

Please test the next package.

FWIW, upstream could do well with enhancing the puzzling/almost-useless error message, and actually show the python backtrace, which makes it possible to spot missing python modules needed at runtime...

Finally I can start it.
