You could also review the commit for functional change. First, find the commit. The message is in this file; <a href="https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-toolkit-gtk3/blob/master/src/sugar3/activity/activityinstance.py#L138" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-toolkit-gtk3/blob/master/src/sugar3/activity/activityinstance.py#L138</a> According to "git blame", the whitespace was introduced by 3b28597. <a href="https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-toolkit-gtk3/blame/master/src/sugar3/activity/activityinstance.py#L138" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-toolkit-gtk3/blame/master/src/sugar3/activity/activityinstance.py#L138</a> <a href="https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-toolkit-gtk3/commit/3b28597486951c225239c220def190377ee1739f#diff-35db2ad94d2c22d773bce7bb50fdacafL138" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-toolkit-gtk3/commit/3b28597486951c225239c220def190377ee1739f#diff-35db2ad94d2c22d773bce7bb50fdacafL138</a> The whitespace is not welcome. You may either remove it yourself, tell Aniket about it, or if you don't want to work toward fixing it create a new issue. However, given that the error message you posted specifically identifies the datastore as failing to start, it is more likely that the commits to the datastore have introduced a regression. I've given you methods to prove that, but not enough information has been revealed, and I've not had time to try it myself. I had tested it already, so don't want to waste time testing again unless I can see what is different. On speculation that you may not have been aware of the Port to Python 3 of the datastore, I've updated the instructions for native install; <a href="https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/commit/e3206870eca3b99bc5baf43750318b72a481191c" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar/commit/e3206870eca3b99bc5baf43750318b72a481191c</a> Let me know if you had built the datastore for Python 2 by mistake.
