Description maxx 2010-08-11 18:16:30 UTC 
After generating a report hamster-applet calls gtk.show_uri to open the folder where the report was generated.

If no handler is installed for directories (ie. nautilus or another file manager isn't installed) then an exception is thrown and it isn't caught.

It was reported against hamster-applet 2.28.3 in Fedora but it looks like it applies to the 2.31 versions as well (overview.py:194).

A simple solution is to wrap the call in a try/except block.

The Fedora bug report is here:

thanks, fix pushed to git master and the stable branch!
chose to just capture exception and go on silently
