Hamster fails to start on Arch Linux.

Missing the python 3.9 dbus module, perhaps?

Works here (openSUSE Tumbleweed):

Python 3.9.9 (main, Nov 17 2021, 09:50:59) [GCC] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import dbus
>>> print(dbus)
<module 'dbus' from '/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/dbus/__init__.py'>
>>> from dbus.mainloop.glib import DBusGMainLoop as joe
>>> print(joe)
<built-in function DBusGMainLoop>

It has been resolved, it seems it's related to the python update.

So all AUR packages installed should be rebuilt.
