What happened?

After I updated some things in my system, every time when initializing it or reseting cinammon with pkill -HUP -f "cinnamon --replace" the message below (in portuguese-BR, my system language) appears in my panel.

Looking into the LookingGlass logs (~/.xsession-errors) I found this error message:

After the message appears I can still use the applet normally.

Other information

I know that the original developer is not working anymore in the version of this repository and that updating to his version outside cinammon-spices-applets will probably fix this bug, but it would be nice that the version here didn't have this annoying error. The error message that appears to the user don't specify which applet is causing trouble and this may affect the general trust in cinnamon applets.
