Yes guess is good, but incorrect I run it on the command line.

Now I did the following:

$ git remote add tremily git://tremily.us/notmuch.git
$ git fetch --all
$ git checkout nmbug-status-python3

commit d64ef215b62fa74a96fdb4c93e1f6f7abf7c80c6

and then rerun nmbug-status -- and I am still having the same problem.
I will investigate this further...

Yes, that is unfortunate that David (Taavetti in Finnish) did an uneducated
choice by choosing english as the preferred language. It should always
have been written in Finnish so we would not have this conversation >;)
