Gramps 5.1.3, Lubuntu 20.04.2 LTS

In the last DAY I fell across a strange bug/crash. Geography “all known places for one family” fails with a stack trace. I’ve tried it for 3 different databases, and several families. It used to work.

My install is from source (I maintain a couple of small changes), and the code hasn’t changed since Feb 3 (most recent date stamp).

I suspect a linux (python) update has changed things under my feet.

Before I go “crazy” with detailed fault chasing, error reporting - is this a known “oh, that old thing” fault?

Perhaps it’s the same as bug report [#12237](https://gramps-project.org/bugs/view.php?id=12237)

> [@Geography view (all known places for a family) bug](https://gramps.discourse.group/t/geography-view-all-known-places-for-a-family-bug/1300):
>
> Gramps version : 5.1-3 Operating System : Win10 Trying to view all known places for a family map I got this: and this in console: Is it a known bug? No window is displayed to report the error.

Will be solved in 5.1.4 with PR [#1188](https://github.com/gramps-project/gramps/pull/1188)
