+
+For now I've patched python-gobject3. More GTK+3-knowledged people can
+feel free to revert it and use the other solution if they so wish...

+>   File "/usr/bin/gcdemu", line 688, in on_popup_menu
+>     self.menu.popup(None, None, status_icon.position_menu, self, button,
+> activate_time)
+>   File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gi/overrides/Gtk.py", line
+> 1381, in popup
+>     self.popup_for_device(None, parent_menu_shell, parent_menu_item,
+> func, data, button, activate_time)
+> AttributeError: 'Menu' object has no attribute 'popup_for_device'
