Comment 1 papoteur 2019-08-22 07:55:58 CEST 
mageiawelcome-2.00-1.mga6 is now in updates-testing

To reproduce the error, you should launch a Gnome Wayland session

Selecting "GNOME (Wayland)" from the login menu results in an immediate return to login.  "GNOME" by itself launches fine and I assume that this is a Wayland session.  mageiawelcome fails to launch from the Activities menu and from the cli gives this:
$ mageiawelcome
QML debugging is enabled. Only use this in a safe environment.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/mageiawelcome/mageiawelcome.py", line 189, in <module>
    cl = ConfList()

    self.screen_factor = Gdk.Screen.get_default().get_monitor_scale_factor(0)
NameError: name 'Gdk' is not defined

Installed the update and now mageiawelcome launches from the cli or Activities menu.

Fine for 64bits.
